Invisibles y ciudadanía global en la formación del profesorado de Educación Secundaria

The aim of this study is to analyze what future Secondary Education teachers think (n = 61) and how they reflect on controversial social problems and conflicts affecting local/global issues, rethinking historical time, geographical space and social interrelations in the world. It was a mixed method research study. The information was obtained through a questionnaire that proposed the analysis of a controversial issue. The information analysis was done following the methodological principles of quantitative content analysis. The results show that future teachers do not reach a satisfactory critical level of literacy, a circumstance that underlines the need for spaces for teaching and discussion about controversial issues with a global significance.
