Makale Özeti:
|
In recent years there has been a growing interest in the cultural dimension of foreign language education, and
teachers today are expected to promote the acquisition of intercultural competence in their learners. Thus, the
present study aims to investigate the opinions and attitudes of Turkish teachers of English on intercultural
competence teaching and to see how and to what extent these opinions and attitudes are reflected in their
classroom applications. Data were collected from 503 EFL teachers by means of a questionnaire. The
findings have revealed that language teachers seem to be aware of the role of the culture in foreign language
education though they do not often integrate culture into their teaching in order to develop intercultural
competence in their learners.
