It draws upon theoretical foundations relating to inter- and intra-cultural communication from contemporary philosophical movements, namely Critical Theory and Postmodernism. The study adopts Critical Pedagogy, as it is described by Freire, Giroux and others, as the educational framework providing guidelines for taking a critical perspective towards both native and foreign cultures. It examines the critical dimension of some selected documents and models used worldwide for teaching/learning culture within foreign language classes. It includes a research project carried out among secondary school teachers of EFL in Portugal whose national syllabus suggests a critical approach to English-speaking cultures. This project aimed to illustrate how practicing teachers approach foreign cultures critically, to provide some grounded theory for a definition of critical cultural awareness within foreign language/culture education, and to inspire a proposal for teacher education and development. Finally, this book submits a general proposal for the development of critical cultural awareness and intercultural communication competence among prospective and practicing teachers of foreign languages/cultures. 410 0$aLanguages for intercultural communication and education ;$v3. 606 $aCritical pedagogy 606 $aMulticultural education 606 $aLanguages, Modern$xStudy and teaching 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCritical pedagogy. 615 0$aMulticultural education. 615 0$aLanguages, Modern$xStudy and teaching. 676 $a418/.0071 700 $aGuilherme$b Manuela$f1951-$01026582 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456031103321 996 $aCritical citizens for an intercultural world$92441554 997 $aUNINA
