Nowadays, the most accepted instructional framework in second or foreign
language (L2) programs is Communicative Language Teaching, whose
main goal is to increase learners’ communicative competence. This
theoretical term means being able to use the linguistic system effectively
and appropriately in the target language and culture. However, the
implementation of a communicative methodology is not an easy task since
it requires an understanding of the integrated nature of the theoretical
concept of communicative competence (Celce-Murcia and Olshtain, 2005).
Therefore, it is the main goal of this paper to help language teachers better
understand such a theoretical concept for improving their classroom
practices. In so doing, we first provide an explanation of the theoretical
concept of communicative competence. Then, a current framework of
communicative competence, which aims at highlighting the function of the
four macro-skills to build discourse competence for communicative
purposes and reflects our conceptualization of language teaching is briefly
discussed (Usó-Juan and Martínez-Flor, 2006a). Finally, on the basis of this
framework, and taking the intercultural component as the point of
departure, a variety of activities in the four language skills are presented for
teaching learners intercultural communicative competence [-]
