![]() ![]() ![]() The text was organized and flowed well while reading. Although some of the information builds off previous content/chapters, it would still be feasible to assign a chapter or section and still make sense to the reader and allow for learning based on that specific assignment/chapter. All of the chapters ended with "key takeaways", but two chapters did not include "exercises" at the end of the chapter.Īlthough chapter 1 was long and contained more information than others, there were still clear sections and subheadings that aided modularity. The consistent start of each chapter with learning objectives and key terminology was helpful. The key terms at the start of each chapter (and being able to click on them for more information) was helpful, especially when thinking of the student perspective.Ĭonsistency with terminology throughout the text was noted. I appreciated how each chapter provides clear learning objectives before getting started. While there are a few examples that are recent, many of the examples (including video clips) were often quite old (and not clearly related to how it is relevant to current times). The overall topic and broad information is quite relevant. Writing about this topic can be tricky as we often view this from our own experiences in life, but the author appropriately references material discussed. Overall the information is accurate and sources are cited. Chapter 1 covered this more comprehensively than the remaining chapters. Given the title, I was expecting to see more comprehensive information about culture and communication (e.g., how to communicate more effectively). For an introductory course (especially geared towards freshmen), this will provide a nice overview of topics. This covers a fairly wide range of topics in regard to intercultural learning.
