Developing Global Competence in the Hungarian EFL Classroom


Study 6 – The Secondary School Study

The study was rescheduled for Autumn 2020 and to avoid another failure to gather enough data, I went to great lengths to recruit more participants. Some participants who had pulled out from the pilot promised to participate if “life went back to normal” and they could return to their classroom, so first, they were approached. One participant from the pilot, Johanna, promised to do more activities with her group, so she remained to be an informant. Then, a call was placed in a popular group for Hungarian EFL teachers to participate in the study and all in all, 16 teachers decided to take part. They were then familiarized with the procedure, sent a Google Drive link with all the materials (worksheets, teacher guides, feedback sheet for the students, folders to upload their reflections to) and a timeline for the study. Four teachers then did not start to do the activities with their groups due to various reasons, and finally data was gathered from 12 groups and the same 12 teachers of these groups participated in the focus group interview as well. Table 3.17 shows the teachers, the profile of the groups that took part in the study, involving their grade, level, members, the school they went to, teachers and the activities they did in class.

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.
