Abstract:

The acceleration of globalization has numerous effects and reaches all the way into people’s lives as well as into European classrooms. Increased migration and the diffusion of cultures lead to new ways of acting and thinking and go hand in hand with changing of local ways of living while technological advances are changing our communication. The failure to adequately contemplate these changes in the light of one’s own life leads to fear, exclusion, and passivity. Specific educational strategies build on the ideas of cosmopolitanism and are aimed at fostering intercultural dialog and the construction of new identities that emerge from the possibilities presented by our engagement with the Other, are needed. Such educational strategies can offer cognitive, affective and social tools through which to address prejudices and stereotypes and which prepare students for active citizenship in a diverse and complex society.
The multilingual platform EduSkills+ (https://eduskills.plus) is dedicated to cosmopolitan educational strategies and their growing importance in the European and international context. It offers diverse, engaging and motivating materials for teachers to help children and youth understand the challenges of our diverse society and to help them refuse radical worldviews. The platform and all materials are available in English, German, Italian, Polish, Slovak and Slovene.
