Abstract

Since1992, the authors and students have been studying how to communicate with the people in foreign countries by joining the summer language program, “Studying Abroad”, at Thomas More College in Cincinnati Ohio, in the United States. Our students have learned that it is important to transmit their own ideas, opinions and cultural understanding toward the foreign people through the program of “Studying Abroad”. Since2003, we have started another summer language program at Kapiolani Community College of University of Hawaii in Honolulu, Hawaii. These projects of cross cultural communication joining the summer language program at Thomas More College and Kapiolani Community College of University of Hawaii is going well successfully so far. Through the projects, we have come to understand that the experience of studying abroad can lead our students to a higher level of communication between different cultures.
