Abstract
The possibility of using digital media is expanding as communication tools in intercultural education. For instance, the Internet makes it possible for us to communicate easily with people overseas without spending so much. Digital cameras and video cameras also make it possible for us to communicate with others visually. Digital media, however, cannot make everything possible. Advanced research indicates the importance of a coordinator for exchange programs between different cultures. In this paper, the authors propose a new exchange model by using digital media supported by an overseas volunteer as a coordinator. As a result, the authors confirm the improvement of exchange practice in promoting intercultural education.
