Estudio de la interculturalidad como competencia transversal en las aulas de ciencias de la comunicación

Abstract

The phenomenon of interculturality appears as a new challenge in the classrooms. It is also a great challenge in the field of the Communication Sciences and the Mass Media Studies. Interculturality must be defined as the principle and project for the improvement of the actions and relations among cultures, by means of dialog and meetings shared between all the students, the teaching staff and the communities which decide to take part in the process. Interculturality must seek for the creative meeting of human diverse experiences. In addition, it needs new conceptions and educational practices centred on the equity, the solidarity and the plural approximation among all the persons and peoples. It is a key pile in the new European Space of Higher Education.
