Abstract
This study examines the role of technology integration in advancing global competence through curriculum innovation, highlighting the potential of digital tools to enhance educational outcomes in a rapidly evolving global context. As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, preparing students with the skills and knowledge to navigate diverse cultural, economic, and technological landscapes is essential. The research utilizes a mixed-methods approach, including curriculum analysis, surveys with educators, and interviews with students, to explore how the integration of technology in the curriculum fosters global competence. Findings reveal that technology enhances students' ability to engage with global issues, collaborate across borders, and develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Furthermore, the study explores the challenges and opportunities of implementing innovative curricula that incorporate digital tools, emphasizing the need for professional development, infrastructure, and supportive policies. The study provides recommendations for educators and policymakers on how to leverage technology to create a curriculum that prepares students for global citizenship and equips them with the competencies required in the 21st century.
