This course is part of the Erasmus+ Project "DivA: Diversity in Action: a cross-border online space for training teachers through multilingual and multicultural experiences".

This course examines how story-based instruction can develop intercultural awareness by incorporating the vision and values of global citizenship education through a careful selection and use of picture books and storytelling practices in second-language teaching with young learners. Drawing on a selection of children’s picture books, the course explores how teachers can use narratives to help children develop global awareness and competences along with language acquisition.
