Perspectiva interculturală – parte integrantă a demersului didactic (dimensiunea timpului) [Articol]

Abstract

The present research is confined to the activity of making a set of materials (curriculum, guide, course support notes) for the course Intercultural Communication, intended for students and teachers of the Faculty of Letters (specialties in the field of Education and Philology). It has already become axiomatic that not only linguistic competence is essential in the process of learning a language, but also the communicative and intercultural ones, since language is closely connected to the people's mind, culture, worldview, etc. We have proved this by analyzing one of the cultural dimensions revealed by the American researcher Hoftede Geert – the temporal orientation, since time is one of the main systems of organizing life.
