McLean, Sharon Anne Cook and Tracy Crowe University of Ottawa  \nReturn to Articles  \nAbstract  \nJudging from public debate and policy, there is renewed interest about the  \nstate of young peoples' civic engagement, their character development and  \ntheir knowledge levels about public issues. At the same time, there are persistent concerns about the narrow and nationalist construction of the very curriculum which should be challenging young peoples' ideas and perceptions of the world in Social Studies or History curricula. The following article discusses some of the ways in which the Developing a Global Perspective for Educators/Développement d'une perspective globale pour enseignants etenseignantes\" initiative at the Faculty of Education, University of Ottawa aims to address the knowledge deficit, the paucity of pedagogical skills and the  \nprovision of curricula with pre service students.  \nJudging from public debate and policy, there is renewed interest about the state of young peoples' civic engagement, their character development and their knowledge levels about public issues. To assert that these worries are not new, indeed, that they extend at least back to Plato, provides little comfort in an era preoccupied with consumerism, especially, as some maintain, amongst the young. At the same time, there are persistent concerns about the narrow and nationalist construction of the very curriculum which should be challenging young peoples' ideas and perceptions ofthe world in Social Studies or History curricula. But even if the curriculum provided a stronger incentive than it does for Canadian youths to act as responsible global citizens, concerns remain about the kind of preparation which teachers receive to effectively teach these issues.  \nThose preparing to be teachers of Social Studies, Civics, History or Geography need to be introduced to current information about the challenges ofthe Developing World and of our own. They need specific pedagogical skills to teach these topics to adolescents preoccupied with their own worries and hopes, and they need classroom ready curricula on which to draw to integrate global citizenship topics into provincially approved curricula. The following  \narticle discusses some of the ways in which the Developing a Global Perspective for Educators/Développement d'une perspective globale pour enseignants et enseignantes'initiative at the Faculty of Education, University of Ottawa aims to address the knowledge deficit, the paucity of pedagogical skills and the provision of curricula with pre service students.  \nThe initiative is based on several assumptions for both student and teacher. First, we believe that the classroom is a central site for raising these issues and questioning attitudes among young Canadians. Second, at this formative stage of their professional development, new teachers are receptive to integrating new themes, such as international development and gender equity, into a curriculum which can accommodate such topics, while not specifically mandating them. Third, the Developing a Global Perspective Initiative assumes that the introduction of such themes not only benefits the international community, but also Canadian society. Character and citizenship education which focuses on the developing world expands the possibilities of convincing Canadian adolescents of their opportunities and choices, allowing them to explore issues of justice and equity in other local, national, and international sites. Finally, the initiative is based on partnerships with Canadian non governmental organizations (NGOs), other researchers in the Faculty of Education, community activists, and the local educational","cbCaiuhCBQ0UCXWN","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuhCBQ0UCXWN","pdf",247067,"English","# Abstract\n## Background and concerns\n## Needs for teacher preparation\n## Initiative assumptions and partnerships","[{\"question\":\"What concerns motivate the article about Social Studies or History curricula?\",\"answer\":\"It highlights persistent worries that curricula are narrowly constructed and nationalist, limiting students’ ideas and perceptions of the world.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the Developing a Global Perspective Initiative aim to address for pre-service teachers?\",\"answer\":\"It targets knowledge deficits, a lack of pedagogical skills, and the provision of curricula that pre-service students can use.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the initiative develop and support global-citizenship learning?\",\"answer\":\"It evolves through campus institutes, resource fairs, speakers’ and film series, retreats, and in-school components, supported by partnerships with NGOs, researchers, and community activists.\"}]","Canadian Social Studies - Special Issue: History Alive!
