| Popis | The aim of the paper falling into the category of secondary research is to present the main themes of current educational research in the field of the development of intercultural communicative competence (ICC) with special attention paid to perspectives for further teaching and research in this field. It is based on an article published previously (Zerzová, 2022), however, the focus of the article and the paper presented here differ since the article focused on the past of the research on ICC and this paper attempts to investigate its future. Current research in the area of ICC can be divided into two categories: studies examining the reconceptualization of ICC and the concept of the so-called intercultural speaker and their role and studies focusing on the reconceptualization of ICC in the context of modern technologies and the so-called third-space culture. These two categories are interrelated and we can think of the second one as a necessary outcome of the first one (Zerzová, 2022). As a result of this development, current research can be divided into further two categories: studies focusing on the development of ICC in the classroom and studies including telecollaboration. Current empirical research on the development of ICC including the use of technology outnumbers studies of the traditional approach and its results suggest its effectiveness in the development of ICC (Liu, 2019; Godwin-Jones, 2013), which the paper further discusses. |
