Funded Activity Summary

How Australian high schools educate young people for global citizenship. The increasingly globalised world requires education and schooling in Australia to provide young people with the knowledge, skills and attributes needed to participate fully as global citizens. While the goals of Australian schooling and the national Australian Curriculum highlight the importance of preparing students for global citizenship, little is known about how schools and teachers interpret and apply this Curriculum. This project aims to use qualitative research methods to determine teachers' work and students' experiences, providing the first detailed account of educating students for global citizenship in Australian schools. The project aims to contribute to improved educational policy and practice, both in Australia and internationally.
