This volume explores cross-linguistic, cultural, and disciplinary communication in global contexts. It reflects on the essential skills required for effective cross-border interaction, the challenges of teaching English as a global language and the role of language education in fostering intercultural competence.
The chapters examine various dimensions of communication, including engagement in international contexts, the systemic dependencies reinforcing educational inequalities, and the integration of intercultural learning. Further analyses explore the dynamics of virtual intercultural encounters, the transition to online language courses, and the impact of study abroad programmes on the construction and negotiation of cultural meanings. Other contributors discuss the significance of integrated Franco-German curricula, the use of translingual picture books and the challenges of interdisciplinary communication. The inclusion of chapters in English and French highlights the diverse perspectives and issues within global communication, language education and intercultural studies.
