Intercultural encounters in foreign language teaching

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the analysis of a student exchange program to England, this seminar paper explores its role in fostering Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) among students. It outlines the evolution of ICC as a key objective in Foreign Language Teaching and defines the intercultural speaker as the ideal outcome. The paper discusses the necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes for developing ICC, while also examining the design principles for successful exchanges. An evaluation of the Stolzenau exchange to Cullingworth connects theoretical concepts with practical implementation.
