Synopsis

Reconceptualizes virtual exchange as a vehicle for humanizing education, expanding global perspectives and fostering values of inclusion and non-discrimination.

This book brings a justice-oriented focus to virtual exchange, highlighting how equity, inclusion and critical awareness can be meaningfully integrated into global learning environments.

The chapters in this book illuminate the intertwined nature of identity, language and power, shedding light on how these elements can perpetuate deficit narratives and structural inequality within virtual exchanges. To counter this, readers are introduced to diverse justice-based perspectives, frameworks, protocols, case studies and materials that support the design and facilitation of critical virtual exchange experiences.

The chapters engage with issues including partnerships and collaborations between the Global North and South, dialogue amid conflict and war, and the use of varieties of English and practices to foster student agency and collective accountability. Each chapter includes practical case studies and critical discussion questions designed for teacher education, facilitator training and professional development in culturally diverse classrooms.
