Beskrivelse
As the title indicates, this presentation and study seek to create and enforce equal opportunities for learning at UCN, and we argue that equity in education is the means to achieve equality.By equity in education, we mean that personal or social circumstances such as gender, ethnic origin, family background and nationality, are not seen as obstacles in order to achieve educational potential (OECD, 2012; Plum, 2008).
With that argument, we follow the understanding of scholars and practitioners in many other nations who agree that lecturer education and competence development need to change dramatically if these should succeed at preparing 21st century lecturers.
Within this line of thought, scholars argue that lecturers who can work effectively with all students, particularly those traditionally marginalized by the education system, as it seems to be the case with the international student cohort at UCN, are better equipped at overcoming 21st century challenges (Cochran-Smith, et al., 2016).
