Exploration and Practice of the Construction of New Liberal Arts Virtual Teaching and Research Departments—Case of the Virtual Department of Cultural Differences and Intercultural Communication

Abstract

Abstract: This article explores the practical experience of cultural differences and cross-cultural communication virtual teaching and research rooms in the context of the development of digital education, taking the construction of new liberal arts as an opportunity. Taking Prospect College as the pilot, the teaching and research section integrates anthropology, sociology, culture, communication, linguistics, psychology and other disciplines through the linkage of the three schools, and builds an interdisciplinary teaching team. Relying on the online and offline platforms, it promotes the innovation and implementation of cross-cultural communication courses. Through four rounds of practice and the “five-step method”, the whole elements of the course are upgraded, so that the course moves from foreign language to general knowledge and is widely applicable to learners with different subject backgrounds.

Key words: New liberal arts, Cross-cultural communication education, Virtual teaching and research section, Educational innovation, Discipline integration, Course construction
