Helping the Consolidation of an Intercultural Competence: an Example From Blended Learning

Abstract

Nowadays, noone can escape the intercultural exchange, and this is especially true when it comes to foreign language students. If teaching elements of culture in a classroom, often using textbooks is most common, constructing an elearning environment helping the students in discovering the Other and preparing them to an intercultural exchange seems complex. In this paper we would like to identify the elements which will be in contact during the intercultural exchange: civilization and cultures. We will then show how we intended to consolidate the intercultural competence of our beginner students in Romance philology thanks to activities and tasks given through an elearning module.
