Formation of intercultural competence in the teaching of geography – theoretical foundations

Maya Vasileva

Abstract

The acquisition of intercultural competence in the modern world is no longer a necessity, but a vital condition for building full-fledged interpersonal relationships, security and predictability in communication. It is particularly important in a context of conflict, both between members of the ethnic and/or religious majority in a country and minorities, and within minorities themselves. Whatever the reasons for this, a solution can be sought through integration. This is an issue of intercultural education and intercultural learning. The contribution of geography education to the formation of intercultural competence is significant. This is quite understandable, given the specifics of the subject. The role of geography is clearly outlined at several levels: at the level of goals; at the level of educational content; at the level of educational process; at the level of performance control. It is these levels that should be the subject of more in-depth study in the context of intercultural learning. The present study offers their most general didactic-methodological characteristics.

Keywords: geography education, competence, geographical competence, intelectual competence, intercultural learning
