This case study investigated the development of Taiwanese fourth graders’ intercultural competence through a cultural project. Besides, students’ perceptions of their learning from the project were also examined. Grounded in qualitative inquiry, the participants were twenty-two fourth grade students. Data were collected from two primary sources: students’ worksheets and group interviews. In this research, Byram’s (1997) ICC model was used as the framework to analyze students’ intercultural competence.The major findings were listed as follows. First, regarding the five domains of intercultural competence in Byram’s model, the result showed that after participating in the cultural project in class, students developed their intercultural competence mainly in three domains: knowledge, attitude and skills of interpreting and relating. Second, students showed positive feedback about their learning experience from the cultural project. It was found that the cultural project arose students’ curiosity towards the other culture as well as increased their awareness of their own Taiwanese culture. Furthermore, although students held positive attitude towards the project, they also experienced some challenges mainly about their own lack of English ability. It is believed that the findings of this study can provide insights to teachers and researchers who are interested in integrating cultural project into EFL classrooms.參考文獻 Abrams, Z. I. (2002).
