Exploring cultural differences through humor
What are the cultural boundaries of humor? This presentation reports on a research project in which students from various cultural backgrounds viewed and discussed a variety of "controversial" comedy clips.

An enjoyable activity can take your lessons to the next level. However, creating activities can be a challenge. Matt will demonstrate some ice-breakers and activities that can be easily adapted to different language and levels.
