Abstract

Teachers today need multicultural competence and understanding to address both global as well as the local possibilities and challenges in their teaching. One way to develop such understanding during teacher education can be meeting with pre-service teachers from different parts of the world. This was our main objective in a collaborative project between an American University and two Norwegian Universities. The pre-service teachers designed lesson plans about cultural diversity, human rights and technology in education, which were implemented in the pre-service teachers’ practice in US and Norway. The paper presents the project and findings of an action research case study. The discussion focuses on the role of technology to scaffold international collaboration in teacher education.
