The contemporary world necessitates using languages in multicultural and multilingual settings as a medium of communication. In culturally and linguistically diverse settings, language users need to successfully utilize their communicative competence to engage in today’s world as competent communicators. Online resources and tools characterize this multivocal social environment. In this arena, intercultural communicative competence is suggested as the primary goal of struggling users. Hence, various models have been proposed and various techniques have been suggested to improve language and technology users’ intercultural communicative competence. In this talk, I will mainly focus on some (inter)cultural aspects of language learning, teaching, and distance education by giving concrete examples from the online world.
