dc.description.abstractThe recent study analyses that how the L2 learners find out the differences between the home culture and the target culture. The purpose of the study is to emphasize on the importance of intercultural communication in ELT and the necessity to develop students' intercultural communicative competence. The study makes use of the work of Michael Byram (1997a) Kramsch, (1998) to reach its desired findings. Data were collected from the different institutions of public and private universities of Lahore region. The survey questionnaire was adapted from Will Baker (2009) Scale of ICA (using e-learning to develop intercultural awareness in English language teaching) for L2 learners. One sample t-test was used to get the required results. The gender based analyses was also incorporated the variation regarding teachers and students' perceptions. The finding of the study reveals effectiveness of intercultural communication. This study measures the perceptions and attitudes of teachers and second language learners as what role can cultures play in language learning. It is impossible to deny the significant role of intercultural approach in ELT in general and in the context of ELT in Pakistanin particular. However, to improve certain limitations, the research also suggests some recommendations.en_US
