Developing Global Competence in the Hungarian EFL Classroom


Global Competence Development in Secondary Schools

In order to enquire into how the teachers see the role of global competence development in secondary schools, they were asked three questions they had to rate on a 5-point Likert scale. In the first question, they were asked about the extent to which they thought it was important for their students to become global citizens. Based on the results of the descriptive statistical test, secondary school teachers think that it is important for their students to become globally competent (M = 4.35; SD = .81). Most of the participants (n = 96) agreed that it was extremely important for them to become global citizens, 32% of them (n = 59) agreed that it was quite important, and only 14.6% of them (n = 27) stated that it was either partially important or not important to become global citizens in today’s world.

In today’s world, there are increasing demands for education systems for empowering students to become active and responsible global citizens who are prepared to address the challenges of the 21st century and who are equipped with global competence. This book examines global competence development (GCD) in English language teaching in Hungary from the perspective of university English as a foreign language (EFL) teacher trainers and secondary school EFL teachers. Based on the findings, it details the characteristics of globally competent teachers, offers a wide array of activities that can be used for nurturing global citizens, and outlines recommendations for the successful implementation of GCD in both secondary and tertiary education.
