跨文化外语教育的“第三空间”理论及其技术实现

The Technological Realization of“The Third Place”in Intercultural Education

跨文化教育的"第三空间"理论强调外语学习者通过学习另一种语言和文化,重新审视本民族的语言和文化,主动建构自己的文化系统,从而超越原有世界观,最终形成国际视野和跨文化人格。在缺乏文化接触的语境下,跨文化教育的"第三空间"可通过网络交互工具来实现。

The theory of ＂The Third Place＂ emphasizes the positive efforts on the part of the for- eign language learners who would reconstruct a new culture system by reexamining their own lan- guage and culture through learning a foreign language and culture so as to go beyond their origi- nal world-views, and eventually form an international view and intercultural personality. In the con- text of absenc6 of cultural contact, ＂The Third Place＂ can be realized by online interactive means.
