ZUR SPRACH- UND KULTURVERMITTLUNG DURCH INTERKULTURELLE BEGEGNUNGEN ANHAND VON FACE-TOFACE CONTACTS, ETHNOGRAPHY, TANDEM LERNEN, NETZ- UND MEDIENGESTÜTZTEN LEHR- UND LERNPROZESSEN UND KULTURSENSIBILISIERENDEN METHODEN

Regardless whether the contact to foreign cultural communities takes place by means of direct intercultural encounters during visits abroad (face-to-face contacts and face-to-face tandem learning) or with the help of virtual interaction in the context of internet and media supported teaching and learning (videoconferencing, video footage or e-mail-tandem-learning), it always produces an intercultural learning process. Nevertheless, most of the mentioned methods are rather in heterogeneous learning groups efficient, while Romanian groups are usually homogeneous. Therefore, intercultural communication methods and patterns are in this case of major importance.
