METHODOLOGY FOR DEVELOPING ETHNOCULTURAL COMPETENCE BASED ON CASE STUDIES (SITUATIONAL TASKS)
Keywords:
Ethnocultural competence, case study method, situational tasks, intercultural learningAbstract
Case studies (situational tasks) can develop ethnocultural competence because they require students to interpret cultural meanings, justify ethical choices, and communicate in uncertainty rather than reproduce cultural facts. This thesis proposes a methodology for higher education that uses a sequenced case bank, facilitated dialogue, and triangulated assessment aligned to knowledge, value orientation, and behavior. The approach is designed to strengthen ethnorelative interpretation, reduce threat-based judgments, and expand students’ repertoires for clarification and de-escalation in culturally sensitive situations.
