Description
Summary:In this article, we would like to introduce a cross-cultural communication exchange between the University of Venice in Italy and our university in Japan, and we try to show how effective intercultural communication is for the processes of academic globalization. The aim of the exchange is to share ideas with presentations from students based on a theme of Fan Tourism. We incorporate Osland's model of working abroad based on the hero's journey and show the relationship between intercultural communication and Osland's model. We also show the exchange output and discuss how transnational exchange can become a force driving and accelerating academic globalization.
