Summary
An English as a foreign language (EFL) program in China implements “performed culture” to teach EFL and intercultural communication. An assessment of this curriculum, however, reveals performed culture as more ideological than pedagogical. This presentation discusses a curricular redesign that navigates cultural appropriation, techniques for meaning-making, and assessing intercultural communication.
