This book provides a contemporary and critical examination of the theoretical and pedagogical impact of Michael Byram' s pioneering work on intercultural communicative competence and intercultural citizenship within the field of language education and beyond. The chapters address important theoretical and empirical work on the teaching, learning, and assessment of intercultural learning, and highlight how individual language educators and communities of practice enact intercultural learning in locally appropriate ways. The book offers comprehensive, up-to-date and accessible knowledge for researchers, teachers, teacher-trainers and students.

Intercultural Learning in Language Education and Beyond: Evolving Concepts, Perspectives and Practices

It is exceptionally striking that this volume is not only intellectually inspiring with cutting-edge research and insights from leaders in the field of intercultural studies in education, but also emotionally touching. Most noticeably, all contributions have been crafted with a warm heart paying sincere tributes to a genuinely great individual! * Anwei Feng, University of Nottingham Ningbo China * In this global collection, one can easily see the impact of the work of a pioneer scholar. It is indispensable for anyone who is interested in the way language education can change the world for the better, inspired by the insights and research of Michael Byram. Highly recommended! * Terry A. Osborn, University of South Florida, USA *
