A Study on Development of Convertible Global Citizenship Education Instructional Strategy and Module of Group Polarization Thinking

In this study, as a part of global citizenship education, an educational strategy was sought for the possibility of shifting extreme thinking and an example of module was developed based on this. In order to establish the lesson strategy that reflects the characteristics of extreme thinking that occurs in society as well as schools and makes it flexible, 8 core contents are extracted from 9 topics in the field of global citizenship education. The core concepts of the lesson module from 8 core contents were polarization thinking, shifting thinking, and practice overcoming them. Through the education instructional module in this study, first, it will be possible to overcome the gap between existing global citizenship and actual lesson content and form, and to reduce the logical gap between society and student behavior. Second, global citizenship, which exists as knowledge, will become a reality, so that ‘real’ global citizenship can be acquired. Third, the global citizenship acquired through this module will provide practical norms, knowledge, and theory applicable in practical situations for students.
