Raising Students’ Intercultural Competence through the Process of Language Learning

摘要

The aim of this study is to identify the concrete means through which intercultural education elements may be included in the academic curriculum, across all subjects. The area in which I chose to apply an experiment was English Teacher Education, for pre-service (BA) and in-service students (MA), as well as for postgraduate students of Economics. The sample of students consisted of BA students of English Philology, MA students of English, French and Romanian Philology and MA students in Business Administration in Tourism and Services. By the end of the semester, students and teacher trainees managed to understand several intercultural aspects.
