Sažetak
The role of a pedagogue in intercultural education is reflected in the enforcement of pedagogical activity that would facilitate a coherent implementation of intercultural principles in direct practice. An empirical research was conducted among the students of an undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate doctoral courses of studies in pedagogy at the universities in Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Czech Republic and Slovakia, having an
examination of the impact of sociocultural factors on a perception of desirable intercultural competencies for the work in culturally pluralist classrooms as its objective. The research results have demonstrated a significant impact of sociocultural factors on the perception of desirable intercultural competencies, and their perception fluctuates in a dispersion from an ability to comprehend the key notions in the field of interculturalism and openness toward various cultures, via communication skills, nonviolent conflict resolution skills, and a critical
approach to societal occurrences, to a capacity to observe a problem from a perspective of culturally diversified students. The research implemented provides for a possible foundation for the excogitation of an approach to the formation of a school open to all the differences.
