Educating for Global Citizenship: Lessons from Psychology
Katzarska-Miller, Iva; Reysen, Stephen
Childhood Education, v95 n6 p24-33 2019
The norms of global citizen identity revolve around certain attitudes and values, such as empathy, helping others, and feeling responsible for protecting the natural environment. The authors have conducted a variety of studies examining what predicts the model of global citizenship identification For example, factors such as cultural constructions of self, media consumed, use of technology, political orientation, and religion have influenced the model. In this article, they briefly describe some research they have done in that context with college students, which they believe can also inform understandings of global citizenship identification with younger individuals. Through their global citizenship identification, they have built a model that shows two factors that encourage development of global citizenship--the "how" of global citizenship education--as well as six outcomes--the "why" of global citizenship education. This article focuses on the "how" of global citizenship identification rather than outcomes to highlight what factors educators can use to influence students along the path to becoming global citizens.
