Language educators know that culture is vitally important in language teaching. All policies and curriculum statements for languages reinforce the importance of culture. But what is the most effective way to teach culture? Is there a general culture teaching approach, or are language specific approaches preferable? How can we teach culture in ways that do not stereotype communities? And what of cultural dimensions of language and communication, as distinct from the specific culture that surrounds a particular language? Because culture in language is variable and context dependent, and culture itself is not static, it is sometimes argued that culture is not teachable, and that attempts to render implicit expressions of culture accessible lead to stereotypical representations. Teaching Invisible Culture takes up these important questions and provides teachers with well-researched, practical guidance, advice, resources and information on teaching culture in language. The books includes a discussion of what researchers and classroom teachers think and do about culture in language education.
