| Research Abstract |
The key general purpose of the study was to investigate how students can be afforded opprotunities to cultivate "global competence" or "intercultural skills" when engaging in English language interactions. In practical terms the study examined the utility of ICT to promote such competence or skills, and to explore how different forms of teaching practice might impede or promote learning when undertaken using ICT.
Regular Skype group video meetings were conducted with groups of three to four student participants located in different countries. Sessions were conducted weekly or biweekly, and groups met between four and eight times over the course of a 15 week semester.
