Developing Intercultural Communicative Competence in Local ELT

This book presents the results of an empirical investigation based on theoretical insights into and empirical verification of the concepts referring to intercultural communicative competence in the Slovak educational system, focusing on culture and its relation to language. Their intertwinedness was proved through thorough analyses of the national curricula for languages, based on the CEFR descriptors and language course books and attitudes of teachers and undergraduate students towards developing ICC in local English language teaching. Language professionals should be aware of how cultural context affects the way language is used to construct, interpret and communicate meanings.Additional ISBNs3631770340, 363177902X, 9783631770344, 9783631779026Developing Intercultural Communicative Competence in Local ELT 1st Edition is written by Jana Bérešová and published by Peter Lang Gmb H, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften.
