Abstract
ABSTRACT This article explores how teacher education institutions can better prepare teachers to help to create inclusive and sustainable self-determined Arctic communities. Building on the theoretical concepts of just sustainabilities, transgressive learning, the capabilities approach, and relational thinking within inclusive pedagogy, we propose that education for sustainable development (ESD) and inclusive education (IE) be more centrally situated across curriculum areas for all new teachers. To achieve this in practice, we suggest that teacher education programs need to better prepare new teachers to engage in critical participatory action research that empowers them to collaborate with Arctic communities.
期刊介绍:
Polar Geographyis a quarterly publication that offers a venue for scholarly research on the physical and human aspects of the Polar Regions. The journal seeks to address the component interplay of the natural systems, the complex historical, political, economic, cultural, diplomatic, and security issues, and the interchange amongst them. As such, the journal welcomes comparative approaches, critical scholarship, and alternative and disparate perspectives from around the globe. The journal offers scientists a venue for publishing longer papers such as might result from distillation of a thesis, or review papers that place in global context results from coordinated national and international efforts currently underway in both Polar Regions.
