With increasingly difficult national  \nand international contexts and its marginal place in the school  \ncurriculum, there is an urgent need to help maintain support for  \nglobal citizenship education. Recognising the challenges and  \nlimitations, key ways to raise its profile include considering available  \npedagogies, drawing on the existing Australian Global Education  \nframework, taking up existing curriculum opportunities, accessing  \nquality educational resources and relevant teacher education  \nprograms, and working in partnership with key Non-Government  \nOrganisations.  \nKey Words: global citizenship education; schools; curriculum; pedagogies; teacher education.  \nIntroduction  \nEducators in developed industrialised countries, such as Australia, face significant challenges in maintaining education about global issues and citizenship in schools. This is despite a tradition, dating back to the 1960s, of teaching about global issues in Australian schools, and the emergence of a specific focus on global citizenship education (GCE) since the early 2000s (Tudball & Stirling, 2011; Sigauke, 2013) . Global citizenship, according to Education Services Australia (ESA, 2011) is about “knowing that we are all citizens of the one globe and behaving in a way which demonstrates a respect for that globe and all people on it.” For UNESCO (2015) it “refers to a sense of belonging to a broader community and common humanity, it emphasises political, economic, social and cultural interdependency and interconnectedness between the local, the national and the global”(p.14) . The main values and attitudes that a student, who acts as a global citizen, needs to demonstrate are“empathy; a commitment to social justice and equity; a respect for diversity; a concern for the environment and sustainable development, and a belief that people can make a difference”(ESA, 2011). At its core, it involves three domains of learning-cognitive, socio-emotional and behavioural. The emphasis here is on our interdependency and interconnectedness, a specific set of values, and a focus on domains of learning. This offers a useful starting point for teachers in considering what and how to teach about global issues in schools. Throughout the paper we mention global learning, global education, global issues, global citizenship as aspects of GCE to consider.  \nVol 43, 4, April 2018 51  \nAustralian Journal of Teacher Education  \nAmong the challenges for teachers in Australia are the increasingly difficult political and economic contexts that impact on schools and their ability to offer students opportunities to learn about and act on global issues (Barrow, 2017; Flitton, 2015; Lowy Institute 2016) . This is evident with the rising and vocal opposition t","cbCaiondyZ15sRq5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiondyZ15sRq5","pdf",300368,18,"English","# Introduction\n## Global citizenship education definitions and core learning domains\n## Key challenges for educators in Australia\n## Political, economic, and policy pressures affecting GCE\n## Need for global cooperation and student learning outcomes","[{\"question\":\"Why is maintaining global citizenship education in schools considered urgent in Australia?\",\"answer\":\"Because teaching global citizenship faces increasingly difficult national and international contexts and its limited position in the school curriculum, creating a need to sustain support for global citizenship education.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the paper describe the concept of global citizenship?\",\"answer\":\"It explains global citizenship as knowing people are citizens of one globe and acting with respect, drawing on definitions such as belonging to a broader community and common humanity, with interdependence across local, national, and global levels.\"},{\"question\":\"What practical approaches does the paper suggest to strengthen global citizenship education?\",\"answer\":\"It recommends considering available pedagogies, using the Australian Global Education framework, taking curriculum opportunities, accessing quality educational resources and teacher education programs, and working in partnership with relevant non-government organisations.\"}]","Australian Journal of Teacher Education - Vol 43 - Issue 4 - Article 4 - Maintaining Global Citizenship Education in Schools - A Challenge for Australian Educators and Schools | PDF",1792077955,45]
