Prof. Dr. Jeff Bale - Faculty of Education Sciences and Pedagogy

Jeff Bale, an educational scientist from the University of Toronto, has been awarded a research fellowship by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation and took this opportunity to stay in Bremen in June 2021.

One of the things he is doing is a comparative study on teacher education in migration communities. Bale interviewed those in charge, as well as teacher education students for this. He has the goal of finding out more about teacher education in Bremen and comparing this with the system in Canada. The researcher is particularly interested in the attitude and knowledge of teacher education students towards diversity in migration and how these aspects are included in their studies. Jeff Bale is an associated professor at the renowned Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) at the University of Toronto in Canada. The Faculty of Education Sciences and Pedagogy maintains a strategic partnership with the Canadian university. Another stay in Bremen is scheduled for the summer semester 2022.
