The principal aims of this event were: To facilitate dialogue between researchers and teaching practitioners who have experience and interest in research and application of IC. To share insights from research and experience, identifying shared and contrasting approaches and perspectives, successes and challenges. To consolidate shared awareness of key issues arising from IC research and pedagogy. To identify key areas for further investigation, and explore the potential for future collaboration Call for papers We are now inviting contributions to the seminar from people with interest and experience in researching and using intercultural communication (IC) in diverse ways. We are asking all contributors if they can make data-centred contributions, so any discussion of new research you are undertaking would be particularly welcome. We especially encourage presentations which explores key questions in applied IC theory such as: How can we study groups without a priori categorisation? To what extent is multimodality/mixed methodology desirable/possible/necessary in IC research? 'Hofstedean' analysis is so seductive for many of our students, why is this the case, and what are its implications for teaching and research? To what extent is it possible to apply three identifiable but competing paradigms: the social science, interpretive and critical approach to research and practice Is essentialism essential in IC research? What are the implications of non-western perspectives on human communication for theory and practice? Papers will be allocated 40 minutes (20 minutes plus 20 minutes for questions and discussion). Presenters will talk to and discuss the papers but not read out the papers in their entirety. The language of the seminar is English. Abstracts of no more than 200 words (excluding references) should be sent by email as a Word attachment to donna.humphrey@ntu.ac.uk by Monday 12th April 2010 Please use “BAAL SIG in Intercultural Communication, May 2010” as the subject line, and include name, affiliation, email address and paper title in the body of the email.
