Intercultural Episodes project

The Intercultural Episodes project hosted by Marta Giralt in collaboration with Irish comedian Killian Sunderman, who created a series of sketches about intercultural encounters consisting of 9 videos that represent intercultural encounters involving different cultures and languages taught in the School of Modern Languages and Applied Linguistics at University of Limerick: French, German, Hiberno-English and Spanish are now available every week on instagram.

The videos are used as pedagogical tools in language-culture modules to show different cultural encounters in an engaging and motivating manner, bringing intercultural discovery, knowledge and reflection through humour. The project was possible thanks to European Commission Project funds and The Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences Faculty Teaching Board.
