Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 1.7, University of Duisburg-Essen, course: Anglistik EFL, language: English, abstract: The aim of this bachelor's thesis is to investigate how the use of literature as a medium can help implement cultural learning in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classes. Thus, the present work addresses the benefits and challenges of using Angie Thomas' novel "The Hate U Give" to foster intercultural communicative competence (ICC) in 9th grade EFL students. The Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement received a considerable amount of support after the death of George Floyd in 2020. All over the world, people took to the streets to protest against racism and police brutality. Also in Germany, people of all ages took part. This movement shows that young people are interested in the issue and want to learn more about it. Accordingly, this can be seen as a reason to educate them, because in a world that seems to become more and more polarised, the ability to think critically is more important and indispensable than ever. To answer the research question, the second chapter will describe cultural learning. In addition, it takes a closer look at ICC according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), briefly outlines Byram's ICC model, which forms the basis for my lesson plan, as well as the principles for inter- and transcultural learning, and the concept of Global Citizenship Education. Moreover, by introducing a cross-curricular model called Confronting Prejudice Responses (CPR) model, which is a strategy to confront prejudice that has proven to be an effective means of reducing prejudice and therefore, it will be applied to the EFL classroom. After explaining these theories relevant to cultural learning, this paper will relate them to literature by presenting the benefits and challenges of literature for intercultural and transcultural learning and will further introduce types of tasks to promote intercultural competence through literature. After this, the third chapter clarifies the analysis of the potential for inter- and transcultural learning with the young adult novel "The Hate U Give" (2017) by Angie Thomas. Following this, by referring to the core curriculum for secondary level 1 in North Rhine-Westphalia, the learning objectives for using Angie Thomas’ novel in 9th grade will be outlined along with a description of my lesson plan. Finally, a discussion with a reflection in chapter four is explained, followed by a conclusion in chapter five, which gives a brief summary and critique of the findings.

This book was released on 2009-08 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject English - Pedagogy, Didactics, Literature Studies, grade: 2, University of Frankfurt (Main) (Institut für England- und Amerikastudien), course: A perfect match?, language: English, abstract: Intercultural communication has become more and more important over the past years because we live in a world where everything is becoming global. A few centuries ago, only people who dealt with international businesses needed to think about intercultural communication and its problems. Today, also ordinary people from different cultures come into contact with each other. Companies work more and more globally instead of locally. We live in a multicultural society with a variety of cultures. Intercultural communication has become a topic which concerns everybody. It will become more and more important in our world of globalization where people from all over the world come together and get in contact with each other. Because of the aspects mentioned above, intercultural learning is an essential part in learning as well as in teaching. Intercultural aspects are involved in our daily life and this is why intercultural teaching is becoming more important. It should be an essential part of modern teaching. The subject English should help to develop students` intercultural awareness. The Kultusministerkonferenz considers intercultural learning as a key element of English language teaching. Because of this fact, the KMK put intercultural competence in the educational standards for grades 9 and 10 (cf. http: //www.kmk.org/schul/Bildungsstandards/1.Fremdsprache _MSA_BS_04-12-2003.pdf 10.10.2008, p. 16) The novel "Bend it like Beckham" which is discussed in this work is very popular among young people. Football unites people from different nationalities, opinions, generations, classes, religions and cultures (cf. Thaler, 2006, p. 4). The language is understood anywhere in the world and this is why this novel is very adequate for teaching inte

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: The transfer of business activities across nations is growing at a rapid rate. The emergence of market economies in Latin America and Asia, the collapse of communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, and the emerging democracy in Africa have led, among other things, not only to increased global trade, international, multinational and transnational business, but also to an increased demand for international workforce since firms must employ people who possess international business skills in order to remain competitive in the global marketplace. How often does it happen that we meet someone doing business in the United States after representing his/her company in Asia, Middle East or Europe? How often do we meet someone obtaining an international degree abroad before doing business in China, France or Scandinavia? How often do companies require international experiences, mobility, and flexibility? The soft skills of intercultural competence and open-mindedness to cultural diversity are taught by universities around the world. But what happens with our own cultural identity while doing business worldwide? What happens if we conduct business in Japan but with an Italian colleague who lived in São Paulo for many years? Are we just applying intercultural competence or are we developing a universal business culture - apart from our own national culture? How does an international workforce communicate; is it adapting the communication style of the host-country, of a majority culture; or is it developing a communication style which is unique in international business? Are we speaking the same language at the end? Is the understanding of cultural diversity becoming less substantial and more implicit? If companies and organizations require the indispensable and vague defined soft skills of intercultural competence, could these skills be seen as an approach towards a universal business culture, likewise a universal business communication? Purpose of the Present Thesis: The purpose of the present thesis is to examine if and to which extent cultures converge in an international business environment and if intercultural competence has a bearing on it. Therefore, theoretical and practical insights in the subject of culture, its implicit and explicit differences, as well as its measurements will be provided. Due to the fact that communication - as a major cultural attribute - is the most obvious level on which cultural [...]

This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lesson Plan from the year 2014 in the subject English - Pedagogy, Didactics, Literature Studies, grade: 1,0, Free University of Berlin (Zentrum fur Lehrerbildung), course: U 54964 "Media, Literature and Language Learning," Peter Stear, language: English, abstract: This paper contains suggestions on how to teach communicative and interpretation competences by using the poem "Eating Together" by Li-Young Lee. The poem deals with, amongst other aspects, the death of a beloved family member and mirrors the atmosphere of a family dinner after the tragedy. On the surface, the text cuts out any emotion towards the dependant's death and concentrates solely on the basic actions of the family and on inanimate objects (cf. l. 1-9). Towards the ending, the text alludes to the family's loss: "he lay down to sleep like a snow-covered road" (l. 9-10). This topic is of high relevance for students in tenth grade and touches upon their everyday life experiences. Additionally, vocabulary as well as grammatical structures in the poem is appropriate for the language level of B1. For these reasons, this essay aims at illustrating the importance of Eating Together for the EFL classroom by developing a model lesson including pre-, while-, and post-reading activities

We also thank the four invited keynote speakers for sharing their insights. Finally, the conference would not be possible without the excellent papers contributed by authors. We thank all authors for their contributions and participation in the 2nd ICOPE 2020. We strongly believe that the 2nd ICOPE 2020 has provided a good forum for academics, researchers, teachers, practitioners, and students to address all aspects of education-related issues in the current educational situation.

Download or read book Vocational Education and Training in Times of Economic Crisis written by Matthias Pilz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-20 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together a broad range of approaches and methodologies relevant to international comparative vocational education and training (VET). Revealing how youth in transition is affected by economic crises, it provides essential insights into the strengths and weaknesses of the various systems and prospects of VET in contexts ranging from North America to Europe, (e.g. Spain, Germany or the UK) to Asia (such as China, Thailand and India). Though each country examined in this volume is affected by the economic crisis in a different way, the effects are especially apparent for the young generation. In many countries the youth unemployment rate is still very high and the job perspectives for young people are often limited at best. The contributions in this volume demonstrate that VET alone cannot solve these problems, but can be used to support a smooth transition from school to work. If the quality of VET is high and the status and job expectations are good, VET can help to fill the skills gap, especially at the intermediate skill level. Furthermore, VET can also offer a realistic alternative to the university track for young people in many countries.

It contains an extensive collection of articles by corpus linguists and practising teachers, covering not only the use of data to inform and create teaching materials but also the direct exploitation of corpora by students, both in the study of linguistics in general and in the acquisition of proficiency in individual languages, including English, Welsh, German, French and Italian. In addition, the book offers practical information on the sources of corpora and concordances, including those suitable for work on non-roman scripts such as Greek and Cyrillic.
