The module aims to prepare you to study university programmes in an English-medium culture and prepare you as a bilingual user of English in global and cross-cultural contexts.
The module is based on a series of practical ‘real-world’ tasks which include consideration of cultural aspects of:
- Decision making
- Working styles
- Views of time
- Email styles
- Teamwork
- Information giving (e.g., signs, notices)
- Translation
- Metaphors
- Making effective use of AI
Each task is explored from both language and cross-cultural perspectives.
