English conversational clubs as a CDL scenario to promote intercultural students’ narratives.

Abstract

This qualitative research aimed to analyze how English conversation clubs as a critical digital literacy scenario promote intercultural student narratives. The discourses of four students from a private university in Medellín were studied through five sessions. Participants completed a semi-structured interview and performed four different focus groups with intercultural topics to be discussed: decolonization, peace and post-conflict, artistic movements, and social progress. The methodology implemented was critical discourse analysis. The data analysis led to the conclusion that English Conversation Clubs with a critical digital literacy approach enhance a critical discourse of the historical, political, economic, and cultural circumstances involved in the context.
