Research Overview David has been active in initial teacher education programs since 2007. An advocate of strong university and high school partnerships, David has initiated teacher education cohorts housed within high schools with a focus on urban education, global citizenship and sustainability education. Embracing experiential and service-learning as part of his pedagogical practice, David routinely collaborates with local community organizations, NGO's and international schools. In addition to his research and publications in teacher preparation, global citizenship education, culturally responsive pedagogy and sustainability education, David's recent focus is on internationalizing initial teacher education where he is currently researching global competency frameworks as conceptual guides for beginning teachers' practice. In addition to leading teacher development workshops on equity issues with Toronto teachers, David has presented on issues of student engagement, culturally responsive teaching and challenging deficit thinking to national and international audiences.
