Value and Intercultural Skills in the Flipped Inclusion Model

The complex society is a human organization in which the number and variety of internal and external relationships are multiple and intertwined. The global unification of people’s behaviors, lifestyles, and thinking takes place, often through adaptation to Western standards and habits of life. Consequently, the educational action must be reviewed (with respect to all contexts of application: formal, informal and non-formal) in order to enhance the multidimensional balance and enhance uniqueness. Cultural values have a significant role in the functioning of societies and their social institutions. They serve as a guide to the ideals and behavior of the members of a culture. Deardorff’s (2006) model of intercultural competence is extremely explanatory of the “contagion” effect generated by individual actions of intercultural sensitivity. For this reason, it is believed that in classes with a mixed cultural background an effective model to be used is flipped inclusion, an alternative method of teaching/learning with a view to continuing education.
