Short description

My main reserach intereset is in the field of Global Teachers.  I am conducting research on to what extent international experience such as interntaional practicum has a lasting effect on student teachers when it comes to intecultural competence and global awareness.  Other key worlds linked to my research are global citizen, critical global citizen, Namibia, teaching practicum in Namibia.
