Overview

Building overall fluency in English to improve intercultural communication. The process of communicating across cultures via verbal or nonverbal language is more complex than it might appear. As a result, this textbook was written to facilitate discussions on important linguistic and cultural topics. It is designed to encourage students to take steps toward a deeper understanding of what it means to be part of an intercultural world. This textbook aims to increase cultural awareness, enhance global listening skills, improve overall fluency in spoken English, and strengthen pragmatic competence. Video clips are a primary feature of the exercises and tasks offered. These clips represent a diverse sample of films and represent a variety of different languages and cultures.
