    Mo$2s(eet Q4

    T7 4(8A4 T A/7 " 'AT"I9A global teacher is someone who incorporates the global dimensioninto his0her school based activities as an integral part of his0herteaching practice. -urthermore, in my view, a global teacher is awareof the fact that we live in an increasingly globali ed andinterconnected, interdependent world and thus he0she makes a greateffort to get his0her students come to this reali ation. A globalteacher strives to create such a learning environment where studentscan get first hand e$perience in collaborating with their international

    peers, and where they can e$press their perspective and views ondifferent issues. In such a multicultural conte$t, students can learnnot only to tolerate but to appreciate cultural differences and bygetting a wider perspective on things they can develop an attitudewhich can lead them to recogni e that they themselves can becomethe ambassadors of peace, tolerance, human values and human dignity,they themselves can become the agents of change.
