THE PERCIEVING AND INTEGRATION OF VALUES INTO AN INTERCULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
THE PERCIEVING AND INTEGRATION OF VALUES INTO AN INTERCULTURAL ENVIRONMENT

Summary/Abstract: Smooth functioning of EU society depends on intercultural education of its members. Training of intercultural skills begins with knowledge and adaptation to the cultural values of fellow Europeans. The paper presents results of tests regarding perception of values and attitudes triggered by this event in two contexts: that of cognitive constructivism and the social constructivism. The conclusion resulting from comparing the results support the hypothesis of an educational project, that intercultural skills training is more effective if learning is based on cooperation, founded on principles of social constructivism.
