This article presents a conceptual model of cross-cultural alignments in education in the digital era. The intention was to explore and respond to urgent questions regarding learners and the learning environments in today’s networked society. The model explores the enabling or constraining influences of educational systems, digital environments, learners, and educators on other learners and is based on the concept of social justice. The skills and competencies required for efficient learner development in a digital environment include digital competence, collaboration skills, intercultural competence, and lifelong learning skills. The interrelationship of these components and their influence on learners’ skills and competencies are discussed through the lens of cross-cultural alignment by examining three intercultural projects worldwide. The authors recommend that educational systems provide educational institutions with a high-quality infrastructure as well as to support educators and learners in the development of digital skills. Future research may examine the model’s components and their interrelationships so that it may serve researchers and practitioners as a basis for the design of future intercultural projects.

本文介绍了数字时代教育中跨文化一致性的概念模型。其目的是探索和回答有关当今网络社会中学习者和学习环境的紧迫问题。该模型探讨了教育系统、数字环境、学习者和教育者对其他学习者的促成或限制影响，并基于社会正义的概念。在数字环境中高效学习者发展所需的技能和能力包括数字能力、协作技能、跨文化能力和终身学习技能。这些组成部分的相互关系及其对学习者技能和能力的影响通过跨文化协调的视角通过研究全球的三个跨文化项目进行了讨论。作者建议教育系统为教育机构提供高质量的基础设施，并支持教育者和学习者发展数字技能。未来的研究可能会检查模型的组成部分及其相互关系，以便它可以为研究人员和从业者提供未来跨文化项目设计的基础。
