Abstract
In today’s globalized and intercultural world, successful foreign language learners need to have intercultural communicative competence that goes beyond linguistic knowledge. Effective communication requires the ability to function in communicative settings and requires more than knowing what (vocabulary) to say and how (grammar) to say it. These five elements: how, why, when, where and to whom must all function together in order to be able to communicate with others in a meaningful way. This article focuses on advantages of using case study method to develop students’ intercultural competence in EFL classrooms.
