Cultural Predicaments: Designing Role-play Simulations Involving Intercultural Communication

نویسنده

  • Roni Linser
چکیده

This paper describes, analyses and compares the learning objectives and design of four roleplay simulations involving intercultural communication contexts. The aim is to elicit some practical observations in the search for an effective strategy for the creation of online roleplays that meet learning objectives involving intercultural communication settings. Can learning objectives be designed into a role-play simulation framework that enables participants to experience the issues and problems involved in intercultural communication? The paper suggests that certain design choices are particularly useful in creating such roleplays regardless of the subject domain to which they are applied.
