This article argues that teacher training can benefit from a multicultural and argumentative view, from which teaching strategies and teaching training practices are valued as means of promoting critical dialogues. The first part points out the debate about the concept of multiculturalism, its different aspects and its development in education. The second one suggests some linkages between multiculturalism and the theory of argumentation developed by Perelman and Olbrechts-Tyteca (1999), which recommends that subjects of the dialogue are seen as bearers of the right of putting themselves in reputable positions. The multicultural perspective is perceived as a process of argumentation so as to promote the dialogue of differences, which can result in positive impacts on didactics and teaching training practices. Methodology is hybrid, being theoretical and practical, by linking the argument with illustrations of qualitative and participatory research that translate the multicultural and argumentative approach n teaching experiences and in teaching training practices, discussing their possibilities and challenges.
Keywords: teaching training practices and multicultural teaching strategies, theory of argumentation, bullying.
