LEARNING AND TEACHING METHODS
This subject is taught using a combination of lectures and tutorials to deliver content and theories. In addition, the tutorials will present opportunities to reflect on personal past experiences. However, the assessment tasks are designed to bring about new cultural experiences that will challenge students to further reflect and analyse their new cultural contexts. Therefore, as a whole, the students will have the opportunity to use newly acquired knowledge in real life.

All material and readings provided are from leading authors from the fields of intercultural communication and cross-cultural analyses. Students will also be encouraged to look at films, news articles and works of fiction.
