Chapter 7: The Possibilities of Intercultural Teaching Experiences for Teaching for Social Justice

In this chapter, I discuss some of the teaching stories of an experienced educator who participated in teaching abroad and intranational intercultural practice. I highlight how a teacher with intercultural experiences in Nicaragua, on a central Pacific island, and in a Canadian settlement home for refugees storied her perceptions of the impact of intercultural living and teaching on her curricular interactions in a multicultural school in Canada. In this way, I display the possibilities of intercultural teaching for continuous professional development toward equitable and socially just work with culturally diverse students.
