communication. While watching, they are asked to answer the following
questions:
Questions:
1. From which context are the participants coming from? (State the
time, the place, the topic)
2. What were the agents asking from the speaker? Were the questions
trivial? Why do you think the agents dont understand how some

brand?

you think he responded that way?
5. Why did Asha tell Mr. Todd that he needs to learn about India?
I. Introduction Because culture has a profound impact on not only our perceptions, but
also our communication behavior, in this chapter we examine how culture
affects our communication behavior and how it influences our perception
of the communication we receive from others. We will try to answer these
questions:
1. What is intercultural communication?
2. What are ways people having different culture, beliefs, values,
attitudes, and assumptions interact with one another?
3. What barriers do we face when communicating interculturally?
4. How can we improve our intercultural communication?
J. Examples Short video clips exemplifying intercultural communication will be shown
to students.
K. Practicing New Skills Discussion: Communicating Across Cultures

2. What is intercultural communication?
3. Dominant Cultures and Co-Cultures
4. Major contributors to the formation of co-cultures

Age
5. Barriers to Effective Intercultural Communication
Anxiety
Assuming Similarity or Difference
Ethnocentrism
 Stereotypes and prejudice
Incompatible communication codes
Incompatible norms and values
6. Intercultural Communication Competence
Adopt correct attitudes
Acquire knowledge
Develop culture-specific skills
L. Additional Activities Say what?
In groups, students think of a scenario showing one barrier to intercultural
communication. One scenario should portray how the message went awry
because miscommunication arose followed by another scenario where
participants used a strategy and successfully understood each/one
anothers message.

Intercultural Communication Party

1. Work in groups of five members.
2. Create a fictional country. Discuss for three minutes the general
description of your country using the following guide questions.
a. What is the name of the country? What are its citizens called?
b. Is it an island or is it land-locked?
c. What is its tourist attraction?
d. What is your country famous for?
e. What are its citizens known for?
3. Describe the way these citizens use language, as well as their
general traits. Make sure to have a description for the following:
a. Behavior (Are they reserved? Loud? Generally humorous? Do
they smile a lot?)
b. Language use (Are they talkative? Soft-spoken? Do they rarely
use polite words?)
c. Nonverbal cues (Do they think shaking hands is distasteful?)
d. Values (What do they find offensive? What positive trait are
they known for?)
4. Based on these general traits, create a list of 5 Dos and 5 Donts
which your fictional citizens adhere to when they attend a casual
dinner party with friends. You have 10 minutes to come up with the
rules and memorize them.
5. Then, read the following scenario.

You are a citizen of your fictional country, and you are attending a
dinner party with other nationalities. Your goal is to mingle with and
introduce yourself and your fictional country to others.

6. The party will be hosted by your teacher. He/she will give the signal
for the party to start.
7. Once the party starts, each of you has to roam around and talk with
people from other groups. Keep in mind the following rules.
