Coperias Aguilar, Maria Jose
Language and Intercultural Communication, v9 n4 p242-255 Nov 2009
In this paper, we analyse the close relationship between the European higher education area (EHEA), the common European framework of reference for languages and intercultural communicative competence (ICC) and show how the implementation of ICC in foreign language teaching can become an essential tool to acquire the full achievement of the EHEA. (Contains 5 notes.)
