This portfolio of intercultural course development involves: both undergraduate and postgraduate provision; face-to-face, elearning and blended learning modalities; and experiential sites in Manchester, overseas and online. The courses cater for both a specialised student body of experienced language teachers and a wide range of undergraduates (drawn from different faculties). These developments have taken place in a context in which the &#8216;intercultural was, for many years, noticeably absent from the institutional discourse. However, over recent years, the university&#8217;s vision for the undergraduate experience has increasingly seen cultural awareness, global citizenship, digital literacy and sustainability education foregrounded. Thus, our experiences regarding these courses can be characterised initially as &#8216;development largely in a institutional vacuum&#8217; and now as &#8216;development in the vicinity of an intercultural agenda and emergent intercultural practice&#8217;. Although we will refer at some points to our ongoing research activity into the intercultural learning of our students, our presentation is primarily a reflection on our course development experiences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ESCalate Regional Workshop on &#8216;The transformative impact of international experience on personal and professional learning&#8217; on Wednesday 23rd March 2011, hosted by Liverpool Hope University.
