Makale Özeti:
|
The significance of Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) in foreign language teaching
has been recognized with the globalization and the role of English language as a Lingua Franca
(ELF) has been well-established over the last decades. Therefore, the integration of culture into
the process of foreign/second language teaching is gaining more and more importance. Several
studies that investigate the importance of ICC have been conducted; however, it is a matter of fact
that the actual integration of ICC into language classes is quite limited. This study aims to find out
the differences between two English Language Teaching student groups; namely, the ones who
have participated in Erasmus+ Programme during their undergraduate education and the ones who
have not, in terms of their intercultural attitude, knowledge, skill and action. The questionnaire
from Ergün (2016) has been utilised to assess the participants‟ att itudes towards ICC. The data has
been analysed through SPSS version 22 and t-test has been used to analyse the means of the two
groups separately. The results of the study have revealed that there exists a statistically significant
difference between the two groups of participants. The findings indicate that the group of Erasmus
Students showed more positive attitudes towards ICC than the non-Erasmus Students group.
