Description

Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Other, grade: 1,3, University of Duisburg-Essen, language: English, abstract: This paper will be evaluating a unit of the textbook Greenline Oberstufe in order to determine whether transcultural and intercultural communicative competences are fostered by the textbook. To do so, this paper will first look at intercultural learning in general and how this concept takes shape in the Common European Framework of References for Languages and in the Curriculum of North Rhine Westphalia. The didactic principal of Byram's modified model of transcultural and intercultural communicative competences will then be elaborated. Based on this, criteria for the analysis will be determined. The analysis of the textbook unit will be divided into three parts, where first culturally relevant tasks will be identified and described. Secondly, the unit will be analysed according to the five components of the model of transcultural and intercultural communicative competences. Ultimately it will be determined whether the textbook unit fulfilled the objectives of the five components of transcultural and intercultural communicative competences.
