Art-based Research Methods in Intercultural Competence and Multilingualism

Art-based Research Methods in Intercultural Competence and Multilingualism

Exploring, analyzing, and using various research methods
Open for application

Description

Intercultural skills have been recognized as the top-valued skills for not only employers in various industries but for education from the earliest age. Multilingualism goes hand in hand with intercultural competencies, and is already a stated goal for EU-education and a need in increasingly diverse working and living contexts. Therefore, the aim of the course is to explore and critically evaluate the key issues in research on intercultural competence and multilingualism, especially from the standpoint of teacher education and foreign language teaching, by working with a range of art-based research techniques.
