Challenges and opportunities of the globalization of education for the teacher curriculum: A historical and comparative look

Abstract

This article addresses the relationship between curriculum globalization, the relationship with knowledge and the evolution of the teacher's craft in the context of comparative education. Globalization has impacted the educational field, promoting the dissemination and exchange of pedagogical practices and curriculum content among different countries. Comparative education plays a key role in understanding variations in educational systems around the world, allowing to identify successful practices and challenges to be overcome. With the globalization of the curriculum, comparative education has become even more relevant, as the internationalization of educational policies influences teacher training and curriculum development. This interconnection between curriculum globalization and comparative education has significant implications for the teacher's craft. Modern educators need to be prepared to work in culturally diverse environments, adapting to the needs of students in an increasingly interconnected world. Teacher training has evolved to include intercultural skills, digital competences and innovative pedagogies. In short, curriculum globalization and comparative education are phenomena that shape the evolution of the teacher's craft. This relationship requires educators to be reflective and versatile professionals, capable of facing the challenges of a globalized society, promoting an inclusive education adapted to the demands of the 21st century.
