Multiculturalism refers to the existence of different social groups in society. Multiculturalism advocates a society in which no culture is dominant. Multiculturalism is a fact of life for many people. Multiculturalism and globalization affect how people organize the world around them and how they see themselves and others. Multicultural education offers an educational program that concerns not only specific minorities but also all social groups. Today, with the effect of globalization, teachers and students can participate in educational activities all over the world. This situation requires educators to approach multicultural education positively in order to ensure equality of opportunity in education. In this study, it is aimed to examine the relationship between prospective primary school teachers and pre-school teacher candidates’ attitudes towards multiculturalism and refugee students. The article summarizes the information on multicultural education, which is one of the reflections of globalization on education, and refugee students and equal opportunities in education. The research was carried out with the relational survey model, one of the quantitative research methods. In the study, it was determined that the sum of multicultural attitudes increased the general level of attitude towards refugee students. Another result of the research is that the sum of multicultural attitudes increases the level of communication, adaptation and efficiency. In the study, the communication scores of the preschool teaching department were also found to be higher than the communication scores of the primary school teaching department.

Thomas Neville George, later renowned as a Carboniferous stratigrapher and palaeontologist and also as a geomorphologist, was born in Morriston, Swansea, on 13 May 1904, being the elder of two children and the only son of Thomas Rupert George (1873-1933) and Elizabeth George (née Evans, 1875-1937). The family background on both sides was dominated by school teaching driven by a deep-seated moral belief in the ability of education to improve and enrich the lives of otherwise impoverished folk. His father, Thomas Rupert George, had attended the University College of Wales at Aberystwyth and originally came from Port Eynon. He became a school teacher and eventually headmaster in a Swansea school but much of his time was given to Socialist politics, particularly in organizing the local Trades and Labour Council, of which he was an honorary secretary. Neville’s mother, Elizabeth, was a school teacher from Swansea Training College and for a short time taught her son at his first primary school. She came from a chapel-going family, whereas his father did not, and Neville attended chapel sporadically until he was eight but not thereafter.

The literacy movement is not just a reading and writing activity, but also includes six basic literacies which include cultural literacy. The local script as part of local wisdom is one of the cultural heritage that should be preserved. This research is important to be carried out to determine the level of knowledge of prospective elementary school teachers of local characters, including the ability to read and write local characters. The results of this study are expected to be taken into consideration in the preparation of the PGSD curriculum, especially in developing local content curriculum. The subjects of this study were students of PGSD at the University of Mataram. The method used is a mixed method. Data collection through surveys and interviews. The instruments used were questionnaires and interview guidelines. Data are presented in tables and diagrams. Data analysis uses descriptive statistical techniques. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that knowledge related to local literacy of elementary school teacher candidates is very low, with indicators of poor ability to read local scripts, write, copy, and only a few are able to mention local characters in sequence. The low literacy of local literacy elementary teacher candidates is exacerbated by the lack of literature owned and the low intensity of the use of local scripts. This causes motivation in learning local characters to be low because there is no practical use in daily life.

Virtually every college or university training elementary school teachers offers a course in mathematics content with a title similar to “Mathematics for the Elementary School Teacher”, the title we use at the University of Cincinnati. The course is usually a year long and in most states it is a certification requirement for grades kindergarten through eight; it evolved from the recommendations of the Committee on the Undergraduate Program in Mathematics (CUPM) of the Mathematical Association of America in the early 1960s. Little, however, has appeared in journals such as the Arithmetic Teacher about the experiences various universities or instructors have had with this course. This paper describes some aspects of such a course at the University of Cincinnati, and I have had two major purposes in mind in writing it. One is to communicate some successful ideas to others who teach similar courses, and the other is to encourage others to submit their ideas, experiences, and suggestions so that all of us can share and profit from each other's successes and failures. A third possibility is to generate some comments from teachers in elementary and middle schools who once took such a course and now, in retrospect, have suggestions to make to those of us who teach it.
