Multicultural Education
HESSOVÁ, Lenka
In my work I address the needs rooting in the ongoing process of systematic efforts to improve the Czech educational system. Mainly, I focus on the question of how to implement the cross-curricular topic Multicultural Education into English language classes at lower and upper secondary schools. As Multicultural Education, along with the other cross-curricular topics, has become an obligatory and essential part of the reformed Czech curricula. I am employed with the English Department at the Faculty of Education of The University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice. That is why I aim to introduce the theoretical background and history of the cross-curricular topic Multicultural Education in the Czech educational system. Then, based on that theoretical background, I shall design and run a course at the Pedagogical faculty for our students (teachers-to-be) that will provide them with sufficient amount of theory. Within the course the students will be given enough practical examples of the implementation of Multicultural Education into English classes when combining cultural and linguistic aims and at the end of the course I will allow the students to design and try such a class during their peer teaching. I will also publish the results of the course for all in-service teachers (the lesson plans prepared by students) on a well-known site called Metodický portál RVP.CZ (Methodological Gateway).
