Summary
Today my guest is Lottie Dowling, a global educator specialising in languages, culture, digital technologies and teacher professional learning. Much of Lottie’s work revolves around global citizenship, that is, how school students are increasingly interconnected with others across the world. This episode offers insights into some of Lottie’s collaborative approaches and practices as she works with teachers to incorporate and strengthen various domains in their teaching practice: knowledge (that is, learning about the world), appreciating global perspectives and culture, and intercultural dialogue. Once these programs and initiatives are running, students might then take some sort of local action, with the aim of global impact. Lottie outlines some of the keys to success, including adequate resourcing, planning school curricula, and involving and engaging the community. We explore some of the more practical approaches that teachers might use in their local context, such as performing a school audit - of the library, or school garden - even the classroom wall and various aspects that extend beyond the classroom. Underpinned with diversity, equity, justice and inclusion, global citizenship can ideally involve all school staff - as well as parents and community - sharing their culture and supporting teachers to plan and implement local learning initiatives. Lottie emphasises the value of collaboration, co-creation and lifelong learning in a rapidly changing world.
