Intercultural Language Activities with CD-ROM by John Corbett

Intercultural Language Activities contains fourteen chapters covering topics including childhood, food, sport, icons, politics and body language. The book also helps learners mediate in situations of cultural misunderstanding and start web-based intercultural exchanges. It examines interview techniques, how people present themselves, and ways to interpret cultural symbols and characteristics, such as those found in postcards, advertisements and online newspapers. In engaging with these topics, learners become intercultural explorers and raise their level of communicative competence.

John Corbett is a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Glasgow and a Professor of English at the University of Macau. He co-edited The Edinburgh Companion to Scots (2003) and is the author of Language and Scottish Literature (1997).
