This document discusses cosmopolitan pedagogy and its implications for classroom practice. It summarizes the views of theorists Klafki and Kemp on cosmopolitan education. Klafki argues that education should address key problems of the modern world and develop students' willingness to criticize, argue, empathize, and think synthetically. Kemp identifies additional modern problems like financial globalization and sustainability. The document concludes that cosmopolitan pedagogy emphasizes problem-based learning, cooperative learning, and developing skills like helping others and resolving conflicts.

3. Case: Theory & practice Do you agree or disagree with D? Are there different ways that scholarship and research in education can relate to educational practice? Should curriculum and classroom research aim to tell practitioners “how to do it”? Can you think of one thing you’ve learned in this class that will make a difference in you as a teacher?

4. Classparliament Formulate the general learningobjective of educational studies Discuss in groups of three A spokesperson enters the parliament A discussion between the spokespersons takes place The rest of the group members act as referents The procedure is repeated until a satisfactory result is met

7. The aim of education Education has to become universal in scope Would be wrong to say that these problems are only for adults as they do affect the lives of children and youth The development of an international awareness of problems should begin at a very early age

8. Cosmopolitaneducation & the curriculum Necessary and possible to set down a block of internationally significant general topics in the school curricula of all states and societies Should take up a large amount of space (25%-40% of the curriculum) Concern key problems of the modern world – forming a common core content of international education

9. Key problems(Klafki) Problem of peace (self-reflection about collective aggression and consideration of the question whether there is any moral justification for wars) Problem of the environment (including the accountability and controllability of scientific-technological development. Further development of the industrial society will remain a risk society and the logic of progress can not be followed uncritically) Problem of socially engendered inequality (within societies & between societies) The threats and opportunities of the new technical control, information and communications media (destruction of jobs) The tension between individual claims to happiness and recognition of the Other Typical structural problems of our historical epoch and can not be extended indefinitely

10. Present-day problem complexes(Kemp) Financial globalization Intercultural coexistence Physical sustainability of the World Further compounded by the increase in global crime (financial crime, internet crime, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and crimes against the future of humanity through pollution of the planet) These problems cannot be solved by any political actor alone.
