Produktbeschreibung

Regarding the importance of English language acquisition as an international language, foreign language learning textbooks play a crucial role in this path. Textbooks have a great deal of influence on developing learners' intercultural competence, since they are often learners sole source of having hands on experience with target culture community. Although a lot of studies have been conducted in recent years which probe into cultural content of EFL textbooks, little attention has been given to comparing and contrasting the existing textbooks in this regard. This book, therefore, tries to investigate how cultural content of EFL textbooks can be compared and contrasted, in order to single out the most effective textbooks for developing intercultural and communicative competent learners. Moreover, this book provides a great body of literature on cultural content analysis models. This book attempts to shed light on the relationship between EFL textbooks' cultural content and learners' intercultural competence.
