Preservice teacher training for diversity: a methodological proposal for the new european higher education area

Diversity is a good dimension to approach pre-service teacher training. On the one hand, it is a reality that must be systematically faced at schools. On the other hand, it is an essential aspect of university teaching, as innovative teaching is viewed within The European Higher Education Area proposes. For these reasons, we suggest and explain a new approach to pre- service teacher training that diversifies methodological strategies in order to cater for different students' learning styles. All of these changes are pedagogically coherent with the challenge of training a new type of primary school and university teachers.
