AB In an increasingly globalized world, interculturality becomes a key factor in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teaching. Culture is reshaped through language from an individual perspective where history links past and current events becoming a dynamic concept from which students can become intercultural speakers and learn to experience, interpret, and orient historical facts into their own lives. In this Master's dissertation, a didactic proposal will be developed to enhance students' intercultural competence by revisiting 19th-century Wild West American history. Aiming thus to promote students’ self-awareness and democratic dispositions within intercultural exchanges reflecting on history's everlasting influence in present societies. An intercultural timeline presentation will be the final task of a sequenced lesson plan based on the Intercultural History Learning model (Nordgren & Johansson, 2015). Different methodologies and approaches will be implemented including the Direct Method, the Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) approach, and the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT).
