Diversidad cultural en la formación del futuro profesorado en América Latina. Necesidades y perspectivas.

Abstract

This work is a reflection on some critical aspects of teacher training for the care of cultural diversity in Latin America, particularly considering the initial training of teachers in Chile. Special attention to the concept of cultural diversity training is provided as culturally diverse contexts that shape the possible scenarios for teacher education and training needs in its initial stage. The author argues that learning to teach in culturally diverse contexts in a critical and reflexive affective plane is a necessary goal to achieve for all the teachers, regardless of their ethnic or cultural origin or roughly diverse reality of the context where it develops its educational work, the main perspective is quality training.
