Towards a Cultura Franca: Contemporary American Civil and Human Rights Drama in the Foreign Language Classroom
$30.00
This book is mapping the fields of modern output-oriented teaching, intercultural learning, and drama methods in the foreign language class.
It explains that drama-based language learning transcends the usual learning scopes in its practical relevance and its far-reaching contextual implications. By including (inter-)cultural aspects, as well as human and civil rights issues, modern teaching can provide students with new frames of references and shifts their attention from an individualistic worldview towards a more tolerant perception of "the other." The term of "cultura franca" hints at a liberation of cultural restraints and this is exactly what is indispensable in order to educate students to become the interculturally adept speakers our modern time needs.
