The Individual within Multi-Socio-Cultural-Realities: Culture Analysis as a Reading Strategy
Price 38.86 USD
The Individual within Multi-Socio-Cultural-Realities proposes the expansion of cultural pedagogy within foreign language programs, presenting the Cultural Inventory as a cognitive-semiotic approach to cultural analysis. Authors Judith Campbell and Guenter Pfister provide a sample analysis, illustrating how the Cultural Inventory, as an instructional tool, facilitates student-centered critical evaluation of the ideological content imbedded in cultural phenomena. Campbell and Pfister further explain how the Cultural Inventory both promotes critical-analysis skills, and enables foreign language students to develop a symbolic-cognitive awareness of culture as the meaning systems by, and through which humans construct, and seek to maintain their respective socio-cultural realities.
