Abstract

The impact of the arrival of refugees and other immigrants in areas previously considered culturally homogeneous has influenced the school community. It has created an awareness of new needs and stimulated the development in both pre- and in-service teacher training. The ability to adapt to societal transitions is a skill to be developed in teachers. Rather than working for the socialization of students into the status quo, schools can educate students to be proactive agents of social change. Volunteer educators have participated in workgroup consultations to create appealing and realistic training that captures teachers' and student teachers' interests and enhances the creation of diversity-positive learning environments. A two-pronged approach is needed that promotes the world citizenship education of all students and meets the life long needs of immigrants.
