Abstract | This paper addresses the theme of internationalism in Kuwaiti teachers' colleges. The main argument of this paper is that dimensions of comparative and international education (CIE) receive little attention in initial teacher programmes. To this end, the study examines first the importance of holding international pedagogy in a time of globalization. Second, it investigates the current context of CIE as a course subject in initial teacher education programmes in Kuwait, and finally, it identifies the opportunity and possibility of integrating international and comparative perspectives in these programmes. The study upon which this paper is based utilizes both document and content analysis. The findings reveal some difficulties, challenges, and concerns related to the context of CIE and the process of incorporating it into initial teacher programmes. Based on this, some suggestions are made with particular reference to the Kuwaiti context. (As Provided). |
