| Sumario: | [EN] This paper explores the potential of Social Virtual Reality (SVR) for Global Citizenship Education (GCE) as a transformative approach to English teacher training and EFL teaching. Given the increasing interconnected nature of our world, this paper investigates how SVR can enhance the development of global competences and cultural awareness in pre-service English teacher training. By immersing learners in cross-cultural experiences and collaborative learning environments, SVR offers a unique pedagogical opportunity to foster global citizenship competences such as openness and curiosity to participate in a global society. This contribution presents the results of the interdisciplinary research project “CoTeach – Connected Teacher Education,” in which different disciplines, including foreign language teaching and human-computer-interaction research, collaborated to develop innovative teaching approaches for future teacher training. |
