dc.description.abstract | In the last decade, intercultural communication competence (henceforth: ICC) has
been acquiring a quite attention from researchers and educators in higher education.
ICC seems to be considered as a fundamental unit of competences that students
need to have in a multicultural and diverse world (Harun, Dalib, Yusof, & Ahmad,
2018). As one of the way that students can practice and implement their ICC,
Australian Consortium for In-Country Indonesian Studies (ACICIS) offers local
students or buddies to be involved in helping the international students to find their
accommodation. In relation to that, most of the relevant ICC studies tend to discuss
individuals’ self-reflection of their own ICC coming to a different country by using
questionnaires to collect the data. Little do studies investigate buddies’ ICC.
Therefore, in this context, as to fill the empirical void, this research aims to
investigate international students’ perception on buddies’ intercultural
communication competence during the accommodation searching in Yogyakarta.
This study is grounded on Chen (1992)’s theory on foundations of intercultural
communication competence. The study is employed qualitative method.
Participants in this research were two Australian students who are living in
Yogyakarta for a semester. The data were obtained by using in-depth interview.
The researcher analyzed the data by using thematic analysis method by Braun &
Clarke (2006). The finding showed that the participants’ buddies have different
competence and approach to perform appropriate ICC. An interesting finding was
found that one of the international students experienced culture shock, which turned
out to be a positive experience because the student found it as a new interesting
experience. | en_US |
