Matsuyama JALT:
Developing Intercultural Competence: An Important Role for Foreign Language Teachers
Date: Sunday, December 9th, 2007 Time: 2:15 PM - 4:20 PM
Speaker: Dr. Alvino E. Fantini, Graduate Faculty, MA Program in Language Communication, Matsuyama University
Description:
Intercultural competence (ICC) is needed to transcend one's native language-culture to interact effectively and appropriately with people of other backgrounds. In this presentation, language teachers explore its multiple dimensions -- definitions, traits, components, levels, and the role of language proficiency for intercultural success. The importance of developing ICC in our students is also considered as an important aspect of the foreign language experience.
