Intercultural sensitivity among university students: measurement of the construct and its relationship with international mobility programmes / Sensibilidad intercultural de los estudiantes universitarios: medición del constructo y su relación con los programas de movilidad internacional

The purpose of this study was to validate the IDI (Intercultural Development Inventory) and to assess the impact of international mobility programmes on the intercultural sensitivity of university students. For this, a quasi-experimental study was carried out using a longitudinal design of repeated pre-test and post-test measures, with an experimental group of students who carried out international mobility programmes and a control group of students who did not. The sample consisted of 3,047 university students. The inventory yielded a five-factor structure (negation/defence, minimization, reversion, acceptance/adaptation and encapsulated marginality) with alpha coefficients ranging from .82 to .91, revealing adequate reliability and validity. The results indicate the effectiveness of the IDI to measure intercultural sensitivity. Although the post-test scores are higher than the pre-test scores for both groups, there are significant differences in favour of the experimental group (p = .000) in all factors except the negation/defence stage. The conclusions focus on the implications of this study for curriculum development and policy at an educational level.     

Parent-teacher conference communication: a guide to integrating family engagement through simulated conversations about student academic progress

Abstract

Teachers regularly communicate with families, yet few candidates are well-prepared for this professional activity. This gap can hinder family–school partnership and pupils’ success. Given that candidates’ opportunities to learn about family engagement (FE) depends on the decisions and values of individual teacher educators, we illustrate how FE can be integrated into an existing educator preparation programme. Specifically, we describe how to design and use simulated parent–teacher conferences (PTCs) to: foster candidates’ conference communication skills; assess their understanding of content knowledge and their ability to plan instruction. Specifically, we designed two simulation tasks that required candidates’ to analyse and respond to a given student assessment profile and then share their interpretation of the information in ways that developed parent–teacher partnership. Modelled after simulation-based medical education, we describe three steps teacher educators can take to integrate simulated PTCs into their existing curriculum. To illustrate how and why simulations impact professional readiness, we also describe the advantages, sequence and psychological processes of simulation training. A sample of candidate profiles across the two tasks are shared to illustrate what candidates take away from their experiences and the kinds of findings faculty may encounter when integrating simulation pedagogy.     

对比分析对民航无线电陆空通话教学的启示

文章首先介绍了对比分析与民航英语通话特点。然后从语法、标准术语、语序、句子结构和歧义现象等方面就句法层面,语义层面进行了对比分析。英语通话与汉语进行比较分析是民航教学研究的新课题。通过对比分析发现了通话语言的一些特殊现象,也使通话教学的教师们全面地了解了民航英语通话与汉语语言结构和意义的差异,对比分析对民航无线电陆空通话教学的启示为制定出行之有效的教学方法提供了一定的理论依据。     

汉英礼貌与文化价值差异探微

汉英礼貌的起源不同，但具有本质上的一致性：一种社会现象，一种获得良好的人际关系的手段，一种由社会习俗所强加的标准。礼貌具有人类性，更存在着民族性。随着英汉民族之间交往的加深，礼貌现象也有了一些变异。只有把握汉英礼貌的共性和个性，我们在跨化交际中才能避免或尽量避免交际障碍，达到有效的交际目的。     

跨文化交际与大学英语教学

语言和文化是相辅相成的。公共外语教学必须加强对学生的跨文化交际意识的培养，发挥教师进行文化导入的作用，避免交际中的语用失误，从而顺利地进行交际活动。     

推销交流论

在研讨推销内涵的基础上，从交流性态的新角度探讨社会流中普遍存在的微循环现象即推销交流现象；尝试按性态将社会交流分成弱态交流、中态交流、强态交流和超强态交流等4种级态，明确定位推销交流为其中的第3级态；首次提出推销交流场的概念，初步给出了由4个交流效应模块构成的推销交流场的定性模型，并研究了它的基本特性。
