The School of the Future – Yasemin Karakaşoğlu’s Contribution in “Spektrum der Wissenschaft”
What would education and school culture look like if research findings and practical experience were consistently combined? The “Spektrum der Wissenschaft” magazine asked 17 researchers this question. Professor Yasemin Karakaşoğlu spoke about dealing with diversity.
In her contribution, the professor of education in the migration society and dean of the Faculty of Pedagogy and Educational Sciences at the University of Bremen describes the school of the future as a “school for everyone” and thus as an “educational and living space for growing up in a diverse society.”
According to Karakaşoğlu, many factors contribute to a school of diversity, including highly trained professionals who reflect the diversity of society and a wide range of creative, athletic, and musical activities. Such a school is characterized by binding rules and clear measures against bullying, racism, and discrimination. Multilingualism must not only be recognized, but also actively incorporated into teaching, without discrimination in the form of language bans in the classroom or schoolyard. When students join a class during the school year, teachers should individually assess their abilities and support needs, whilst peers help the newcomers settle into the class. The school should also offers programs for all children and young people in which they can exchange ideas with other young people across national borders – either on site or individually.
