Otvorenost škole kao humane socijalne zajednice i razvoj multikulturalnosti
Openness Of The School As A Human Social Community And Multicultural Development

Summary/Abstract: The study deals with the issue of the school's openness in the process of multiculturalism. Openness of a school as a human social community presents a condition for the development of multiculturalism processes in the society. Current social changes emphasize the issue of multiculturalism and, consequently, new educational needs of an individual for which the school as an educational institution should provide an adequate answer. Changing the profile of educational institutions towards the development of multiculturalism includes the changes that are based on the openness of the school to wider social environment, as well as the changes within the very school in the aspect of redefining the goals and tasks of school syllabus, textbooks, and the changes in the role of teachers. With these changes in schools, new possibilities are created for accomplishing the right of all children to education regardless of individual differences, as well as differences conditioned by social and cultural milieu, which enables the school to be realized as a human social community on a wider social plan.
