Abstract

The field of Global Citizenship Education (GCE) has gained momentum in the last few decades. Even as researchers continue to develop the definition of the concept, GCE has found its place in the curriculum and education policy of many countries, notably in South Korea. Recently, studies have shown that the English Language classroom is an optimal place for integrating GCE themes and objectives. In response, in-service training programs like the one at the Gyeonggi-do Institute For Language Education have begun implementing modules on GCE, and the results show that even one training module can lead to the successful integration of GCE by Secondary English language Teachers. These results showcase a need for more GCE programs to adequately prepare educators for reaching GCE related educational standards.
