About the Course
This course explores both intercultural communication and social media, examining how our cultures affect our use of social media and how social media may affect our cultures.
The course is designed to increase intercultural communication competence, including increasing the student’s cultural self-awareness, heightening cultural sensory perception, and developing the ability to adapt thinking, behaviour and strategies to achieve more effective communication. It also aims to develop a broader understanding of social media as a means for global communication, and as a data source for research.
