Abstract
Young people in contemporary societies, more than previous
generations, face a life in which they will work and live with individuals belonging
to other cultural backgrounds. The idea of cultural pluralism that is introduced in
the programs of intercultural education is increasingly accepted, which results in
development of awareness for the multiculturalism as a social wealth. In this
context the intercultural competent teacher is able to understand, evaluate and relate
to ambiguous and uncertain intercultural situations, realizing the relative validity of
the own frame of reference and able to select and use communication styles and
behavior that fit a specific local and intercultural context. Thus, teacher's
competence in this important aspect of the educational process, together with their
proactive or static approach to diverse aspects and issues concerning the broader
area of culture, represent unquestionable impact factors on students’ approach
towards multicultural issues. This article addresses some of the main issues in
teacher’s intercultural competence in the light of new intercultural education
concept in Macedonia.
