It is now widely recognised that learning a language should not just involve linguistic competence but also intercultural competence. It is also clear that intercultural competence can be developed through related subjects such as geography, history, mother tongue teaching.

It contains descriptions of lessons and materials from a wide range of classrooms in several countries and for beginners to advanced learners.
