Teachers' Perceptions On The Role Of Technology In Promoting Intercultural Communicative Competence: A Case Study Of Civilisation Courses At Mila University Centre
Authors : Boulbair Salim . Souhali Hichem .
Abstract
This study examines Algerian EFL teachers' perceptions of integrating technology to develop Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) in civilisation courses at Mila University Centre. A quantitative survey was administered to 45 teachers purposively selected based on their teaching experience. The questionnaire employed validated scales measuring technology perceptions, ICC teaching beliefs, and implementation challenges. Findings revealed positive attitudes toward the role of technology in ICC development, with digital storytelling and virtual cultural exchanges being rated as the most effective. Statistical analyses, including correlation and regression procedures, revealed significant relationships between teachers' perceptions of technology and their teaching beliefs. However, significant barriers included inadequate technological infrastructure, limited professional training opportunities, and time constraints. The study emphasizes the importance of comprehensive professional development programs, enhanced technological infrastructure, and supportive institutional policies to advance technology-mediated instruction in ICC in Algerian higher education settings.
