Abstract
This article describes an exchange project carried out by foreign language classes
in the University of León, Spain and the University of Northern Michigan, USA. The two groups
integrated videoconferencing technology into a task based exchange in order to make students more
aware of how they viewed their own and the target cultures. In the course of the project learners also
experienced some of the challenges of inter-cultural communication. The development of the project is
described and examples of intercultural learning are looked at. Some guidelines for the use of
videoconferencing in such intercultural exchanges are also suggested.
