ABSTRACT The present article critically analyses the pedagogical efforts of two teachers to promote values education and intercultural reflection in their own educational practice. They teach in higher education in Norway and most of their students have majority backgrounds. Based on their teaching experiences with VaKE (Values and Knowledge education), the article discusses opportunities and challenges when working with values education in majority student groups. It concludes that discussing values is difficult but can be eye opening. It also raises the question of which dilemmas can prevent stereotyping and foster more complex intercultural thinking and shows that intercultural education requires a discussion of one’s own cultural position. The article highlights the teacher’s crucial role in the VaKE-process regarding the aims of intercultural values education.

促进高等教育中大多数学生群体的跨文化教育

摘要 本文批判性地分析了两位教师在他们自己的教育实践中促进价值观教育和跨文化反思的教学努力。他们在挪威的高等教育中任教，他们的大多数学生都拥有多数背景。本文根据他们在 VaKE（价值观和知识教育）方面的教学经验，讨论了在大多数学生群体中进行价值观教育时的机遇和挑战。它得出的结论是，讨论价值观很困难，但可以大开眼界。它还提出了哪些困境可以防止刻板印象和培养更复杂的跨文化思维的问题，并表明跨文化教育需要讨论自己的文化立场。
