Downloads
This article explores the development of socio-cultural competence in students through the use of authentic materials. Socio-cultural competence is essential for effective communication and interaction in diverse social contexts. Authentic materials, which are materials created for native speakers of a language and reflect real-world language use, have been shown to enhance language learning by providing students with exposure to authentic cultural content and language structures. This article discusses the benefits of using authentic materials in the classroom to develop socio-cultural competence, including increased cultural awareness, improved language proficiency, and enhanced intercultural communication skills. Practical strategies for incorporating authentic materials into language teaching are also presented. Overall, this article highlights the importance of integrating authentic materials into language instruction to help students develop socio-cultural competence and navigate cross-cultural interactions successfully.
