The Syllabus
The Course: The Study of Intercultural Communication The Text Book: 1. Communication Between Cultures 2. Intercultural Communication in English

The
planet Earth is not shrinking, but time and space are. Modern transportation and communication reduce time and distance. A closed relationship ties all people together. No nation, group, or culture can remain isolated. If you touch one part of the world, you touch all parts.
Examples about cultural connotation carried by languages and customs
In the global village, nations are like families and continents are like neighborhoods. In a globalizing society, your neighbor may be an American, an English, or a French which seemed incredible before. But now it is possible. Globalization is a process of spreading the modernization and civilization among the whole world.

The Course Purpose
It is to find out the cultural responses when multicultural people meet each other. to understand how cultures influence languages to help students understand the relationship between language and culture

The notion of “a tool” guided us to pay more attention to the study of interrelationship of languages, but ignored the study of the important elements which influence and control languages.

Course Description

If one is good at a foreign language, it means this person has access to better cross-cultural communication, but knowing a foreign language doesn’t mean that one can communicate with people of the language without problem.

Course Description
This is a one-semester course (32 periods altogether) for under-graduate students. This course is intended to discuss about the unique relationship between language and culture in communication. It is about what happens when people from different cultures come together to share ideas, feelings, and information.

They are closely related to each other. Being the most active part of a language, a vocabulary shows a lot of cultural differences. We have ignored intercultural communication in our language teaching for a long time. That is because we have been influenced by Stalin’s notion: language is a tool.

Course Description
Introduce some theoretical issues of intercultural communication to explain differences and similarities in intercultural communication. And use some cases to get further understanding about the dimensions of intercultural communication in the world. Offer you opportunities to do critical thinking, practicing and also doing presentations in class.
