Abstract
A culture sensitive pedagogy actively reflects the culture specific knowledge, behavior, attitudes, and skills to complement the basic learning requirements common to all schooling. To develop a pedagogy that is richer and more relevant in content and style to both teachers and learners requires a thorough analysis of the cultural context and a selection of those ideas and practices unique to the culture to enrich curriculum planning At the same time there is a strong emerging ‘global’ culture that cannot be ignored. Fueled by the Internet, computers in the classroom, English as the dominant language, and universal standards for teacher training, it is creating demands for a form of teaching that accommodates both global ideas and contextual needs. It is concluded that an emic-etic balance is the challenge for the culture sensitive pedagogy that meets the demands of an emerging global culture.
