Abstract:

Many language teachers recognise the importance of integrating intercultural
learning into language learning, but how this can be best achieved is not
always apparent. This is particularly the case in foreign language learning
contexts where teachers are working with a prescribed textbook and
opportunities to use the language outside the classroom are limited. This book
argues that teachers can work creatively with conventional resources and
utilise classroom experiences in order to help learners interpret aspects of
communication in insightful ways and develop awareness of the influence of
cultural assumptions and values on language use. The book provides extensive
analysis of a range of classroom interactions to demonstrate how teachers and
learners can work together to construct opportunities for intercultural
learning through reflection on pragmatics.
