Readings in Intercultural Communication, Volume II.
Hoopes, Davis S., Ed.
The second volume contains five articles on the theory of culture conflict, four perspectives on intercultural communications workshop programs, and seventeen syllabi courses on or related to intercultural communications in higher education. This volume attempts to bring about a more worldly perspective in universities and in the nation itself. The articles on theory deal primarily with culture shock in relation to problems of adjustment in a new cultural environment, cross cultural learning experiences, learning processes in an intercultural setting, difficulties in interpersonal communication, and informant-interaction training in the foreign language classroom. Practical exercises, ideas, and resources are given for those concerned with developing college cultural sensitivity programs in the second part of the publication. The last section outlines existing intercultural communication college programs dealing with problems and processes of culture change due to culture contacts and thereby describes ways in which to help students develop intercultural communication skills. Also listed in the program descriptions are student activities, texts, and supplemental bibliographies. (SJM)
