Course Contents
The virtual intercultural simulation game Megacities takes place in cooperation with the Université de Grenoble and the Universidade de Lisboa. A simulation game is an experiential learning method whereby students experience interculturality through play in the context of internationality, multilingualism, virtuality and various cultures.
