Abstract:

Learning a new language offers a unique opportunity to discover other cultures
as well as one's own. This discovery process is essential for developing
21st-century intercultural communication skills. To help prepare language
teachers for their role as guides during this process, this book uses
interdisciplinary research from social sciences and applied linguistics on
intercultural communication for designing teaching activities that are readily
implemented in the language classroom. Diverse language examples are used
throughout the book to illustrate theoretical concepts, making them accessible
to language teachers at all skill levels. The chapters introduce various
perspectives on culture, intercultural communicative competence, analyzing
authentic language data, teaching foreign/second languages with an
intercultural communication orientation, the intercultural journey, the
language-culture-identity connection, as well as resolving miscommunication
and cultural conflict. While the immediate audience of this book is language
teachers, the ultimate beneficiaries are language learners interested in
undertaking the intercultural journey.
