COURSE FOUR:INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATORS
Overall Course Objective In this course students will develop
observational skills to diagnose their intercultural, communicative and linguistic competences. They will reflect upon their cultural identity, idiosyncrasies and their position about other cultures or subcultures.

In order to do this, they will explore their tolerance to behaviors and points of view of people who belong to other subcultures within their own cultural setting. By doing this students will identify the pragmatic use of language, that is, rules of interaction, relevance of context, and the intention of the speaker. Based on this diagnosis, students will identify tools that can help them become better communicators, and language users and will design an action plan to start improving.
