    Open Access•Sandra J Savignon, Pavel V Sysoyev•ARTICLE•Foreign Language Annals•2005•Cited by: 6•References: 8

    This article suggests a set of strategies for developing the sociocultural competence of language learners. These strategies extend the notion of coping strategies, or strategic competence (Savignon, 1972, 1983, 1997), to include the intercultural dimension articulated in current goals for U.S. world language education.
