Dissertation Project: "Intercultural communication competence in foreign language teaching and learning: A comparison of the situation in Morocco and Germany tertiary education."[working title]

In my dissertation project I am going to investigate if intercultural communication (IC) is taught in Moroccan / German universities (especially in the English language department) just as a subject or as a competence from an academic way of learning foreign language perspective. The main purpose of this research is to test the level of ICC of FLSH of Meknes and Bonn university students and to make a comparison between students who are affiliated in intercultural clubs and those who are not. Also, the study will identify teaching styles of EFL teachers at the different universities and how they affect students’ performance. Moreover, this study will also elicit ways to develop ICC in higher education from the respondents.
