Abstract:
Several review articles focusing on the development of intercultural competence in higher education have already been published. What the field lacks is a review article focusing on the evaluation of existing methodological approaches to investigating the teaching of intercultural competence in higher education. This review of 44 articles published between 2018 and 2022 aims to examine trends, classify, summarize, and evaluate approaches to researching intercultural competence, with a particular emphasis on technology-supported interventions. It demonstrates what characterizes this research (e.g., in terms of sample size or assessment instruments) and highlights areas for methodological improvement and thus a platform for future research directions.
