In: International journal of Smart Education and Urban Society: an official publication of the Information Resources Management Association, Band 10, Heft 2, S. 70-77
Abstract
This article deals with the problems which are arising in the process of adaptation of immigrants to educational spaces in Ukraine and Latvia upon their arrival in the country of settlement. Among these problems are the differences in educational systems of the output and input countries, difficulties in mastering languages of a learning process in the countries, overcoming misunderstanding in intercultural communication within and outside of schools, unpreparedness of teachers and trainers to face and to solve challenges that are generating by immigrants and the host societies. The discussion is based on the preliminary results obtained during the implementation of the joint Ukrainian-Latvian project "Immigrants in Society: Challenges for Education" sponsored by Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine and Ministry of Education and Science of Latvia.
