Course Global And Intercultural Communication

Course Description

The Global and Intercultural Communication course aims to develop students‘ ability to navigate and communicate effectively in diverse cultural contexts (e.g., western/Indonesian society and culture). The course covers intercultural communication theories, cultural intelligence, global communication strategies, and conflict resolution. Emphasis is placed on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 10 (Reduced Inequalities) and 16 (Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions) to promote understanding and inclusivity. Teaching approaches include interactive lectures, cultural immersion activities, group discussions, and case studies. Assessment involves a combination of projects, cultural analysis, and reflective reports. Projects require students to design communication strategies for multinational teams, while cultural analysis tasks involve studying communication practices in different cultures. Reflective reports encourage self-assessment and continuous improvement in intercultural competence. By the end of the course, students will be equipped with the skills to communicate effectively across cultures, fostering collaboration and understanding in professional and personal interactions.
