El concepto de raza según los futuros docentes. Experiencia formativa necesaria para enseñar en escuelas multiculturales

Abstract

Over the past years, the arrival of foreign immigrants to our country has caused a considerable increase in the number of students, sons and daughters of these immigrants, in Spanish schools. educational institutions are devoting considera- ble resources to address the cultural diversity of students. However, it is also neces- sary to promote reflective and critical attitudes among preservice teachers about their multicultural conceptions. In particular, this paper presents an ethnographic study on how a group of preservice teachers reflect about the concept of race. After attending this course, most of them problematize their concept of race, even rethinking about their behavior and attitudes.
