The consequences of contemporary pluralist society create culturally challenging educational environment in EU. It is recognized that there is a need for methodology and pedagogical strategies of intercultural education that are consistent with both local realities and European space exploring the comparative view on various common and cross-cultural issues. The two participants, having developed social and European conscience as well as the necessary substantially qualifications, will work with sensitiveness to individual differences, in order to be prepared to meet different cultures. Various media will be used to reflect cultural diversity and to explore numerous sociocultural similarities and differences in order to develop cultural identity. Media belongs to everyday life of young people, so the use of digital media as a learning tool provides extra motivation for students and is based on their interests and everyday realities. Thus, digital media in intercultural education determine the focus on values, attitudes, critical thinking, and consciousness rising of students rather than simply on knowledge acquisition. This learning experience not only improves intercultural educational practice but supports and empowers both national and European community. By the end of the course, participants will : Have good understanding of the key conceptual frameworks of the intercultural field Be able to incorporate intercultural elements into their own areas of training Have critical understanding of the principles of intercultural and cross-cultural education and communication Have theoretical understandings of culture and cultural diversity in the context of globalization Understand what is cultural diversity in contexts of education policy, management, curriculum, teaching and learning Understand and create media messages Use ICT in education (Including interactive boards and digital books) Develop independent study skills
