In the framework of continuous reformation of the education system in Albania, many initiatives have been taken aiming at improving the quality of the teaching and learning process WHERE?? IN THE AREA OF???? . Several ambitious projects have been piloted. One of them is related to setting the teaching and learning process in a pragmatic global context. This project was piloted in some areas of Albania. It aimed at applying some new principles of teaching and learning by simultaneously setting teaching and learning in four dimensions: that of time (present, past, future), space, problems (environment, human rights, etc.) and internal. Teaching was based on the use of interactive, all inclusive techniques and strategies. As a result, the interactive profile of the teacher is strengthened and the quality of students’ learning has improved as well. This project is supported by the Institute of Global Education in Canada
 This article brings a picture of the impacts of this initiative, which are related with the best student outcomes, change of values and attitudes about life, new approaches for the world and the active participation in important social roles. This pilot work has led to a new objective, namely the one of establishment of a new teacher profile in the global area and of the new roles it should take in the course of both teaching and learning. Data and thoughts of teachers and students related to such findings are described in the current article.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">81-91</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barbara Schröttner</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">VISIONARY EDUCATIONAL CONCEPTS FOR GLOBAL CHALLENGES: GLOBAL AND PEACE EDUCATION</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Problems of Education in the 21st Century </style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">education policy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">global education</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">peace education</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">October/2008</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://oaji.net/articles/2014/457-1392284675.pdf</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The scientific problem of this research points to the fact that a paradigm change in the meaning of educational conceptions and philosophies can be noticed because of intense globalization processes. The analysis demonstrates that education systems which mainly concentrate on the needs of economic globalization can be seen as amplifiers of the globalization phenomenon. The relevance of the study is evident: The influence of the nation-state concerning educational issues gets increasingly lost in a time of globalization, being constantly handed over to private providers and international actors in the field of education. This research in the field of social science is based on an interdisciplinary conceptual framework concerning the fields of adult education; intercultural studies; peace, globalization, and development studies. The intention of the investigation is to describe alternative educational concepts which (are able to) react to the global challenges, as for example global and peace education. The main conclusion of this investigation shows that a reorientation concerning educational topics, which focuses on social cooperation, global solidarity, and a world-wide culture of peace, has to take place.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">118-124</style></section></record></records></xml>
