This book provides a contemporary and critical examination of the theoretical and pedagogical impact of Michael Byram's pioneering work on intercultural communicative competence and intercultural citizenship within the field of language education and beyond. The chapters address important theoretical and empirical work on the teaching, learning, and assessment of intercultural learning, and highlight how individual language educators and communities of practice enact intercultural learning in locally appropriate ways. The book offers comprehensive, up-to-date and accessible knowledge for researchers, teachers, teacher-trainers and students.

Resumen:

The central aim of language teaching is typically to prepare learners to communicate through the language learnt. However, much current language teaching theory and practice is based on a simplistic view of communication that fails to match the multilingual and intercultural reality of the majority of second language (L2) use. This Element examines the relationship between language and culture through an L2 in intercultural and transcultural communication. It puts forward the argument that we need to go beyond communicative competence in language teaching and focus instead on intercultural and transcultural awareness. Implications for pedagogic practice are explored including intercultural and transcultural language education.

Microaggressions are subtle offensive mechanisms that can be intentional or unintentional (Pierce, 1970). For the past 50 years, researchers have documented their damaging effects on peoples? mental and physical health. In this report, we focus on microaggressions in the Spanish classroom and with Latino/Latinx/Hispanic students, including their damaging effects within the context of changing demographics in the United States, how they impact our language classrooms, and how they can be mitigated through language curricula that promote intercultural citizenship. Also, we share strategies and suggestions to counter microaggressions in the language classroom, grounded in the...

Resumen:

This book demonstrates the positive impact of using film and audiovisual material in the language classroom. The chapters are evidence-based and address different levels and contexts of learning around the world. They demonstrate the benefits of using moving images and films to develop intercultural awareness and promote multilingualism, and suggest Audiovisual Translation (AVT) activities and projects to enhance language learning. The book will be a valuable continuing professional development resource for language teachers and those involved in curriculum development, as well as bringing the latest research, theory and pedagogical techniques to teacher training courses.

Si tenemos en cuenta que la movilidad transnacional y los contactos interpersonales se han incrementado exponencialmente en las últimas décadas, no resulta extraño que de manera paralela haya crecido el interés por la investigación sobre interculturalidad en el ámbito de la enseñanza de lenguas. Una de las principales motivaciones que ha conducido a desarrollar este tipo de investigación tiene que ver con la necesidad cada vez más acuciante de adquirir competencia intercultural, tanto en entornos personales, como en los profesionales y educativos. A ello se añade la creciente exigencia en las sociedades digitalizadas de comunicarse de forma eficaz e interculturalmente adecuada, también en entornos virtuales.

Resumen:

Research on ?heritage/community language education? (HCLE) has a relatively recent trajectory, but it has generated a large number of scholarly publications, particularly in relation to Spanish in the United States (U.S.) where the growth of Spanish heritage language learners (HLL) has been exponential. However, to date, limited research attention has been given to the intersection between heritage language learning and the development of intercultural communicative competence (ICC). This may be attributed to the assumption that, on a daily basis, such learners are required to move and effectively operate between languages and cultures and, therefore, already possess adequate levels of ICC. With the development of ICC, now considered an integral component in language education, the time appears ripe to examine its implications within...

Resumen:

Pese a que existe un cierto consenso en la didáctica de lenguas extranjeras respecto a la conceptualización de la Competencia Comunicativa Intercultural (CCI), surgen discrepancias en cuanto a cómo medirla, aspecto al que se dedica este artículo. Así, en primer lugar, se revisan diversos marcos teóricos de la CCI para, posteriormente, abordar los obstáculos conceptuales, éticos e instrumentales que supone la evaluación y medición de esta competencia. Partiendo de esta base, se analiza un conjunto de herramientas de medición de la interculturalidad de acuerdo con sus características psicométricas. Dada la ausencia de instrumentos enfocados hacia la enseñanza de lenguas extranjeras y, en concreto, hacia el español como lengua extranjera, se ofrecen los resultados obtenidos mediante una nueva herramienta, la Escala de Recursos...

Resumen:

The need for foreign language teachers to acquire Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) arises both from recent changes to their role and from the current context of increased globalisation and society?s enhanced awareness of interculturality. Faced with such transformations, foreign language classrooms require a specific and systematic integration of the intercultural dimension. However, teacher development programmes rarely include content related to the acquisition of ICC either by teachers or learners. This paper aims to fill that gap by offering guidelines for the development of training courses for L2 teachers of Spanish and contribute to enhance their professional profile. The proposal, which considers both teaching competences and generic professional skills, is designed to be applied to diverse target groups or...

Resumen:

Actualmente vivimos en contextos de movilidad creciente en los que la competencia comunicativa intercultural (CCI) constituye una de las claves para gestionar la diversidad e interactuar adecuadamente en escenarios multiculturales. En este artículo abordamos, en primer lugar, los antecedentes, la conceptualización y las dimensiones de la CCI (cognitiva, procedimental, afectiva y de conciencia crítica). En segundo lugar, analizamos cómo reflejan las dimensiones de esta competencia algunos documentos institucionales de referencia en la enseñanza de lenguas extranjeras tanto en Estados Unidos como en Europa. En tercer lugar, planteamos el estado actual de la investigación, sintetizando algunas contribuciones significativas vinculadas al desarrollo de la CCI en el ámbito de ELE/L2 en las dos últimas décadas. Finalmente, en el apartado de...
