Abstract
This chapter discusses the importance of the concept of cultural diversity in language teaching. Internationalization at Home (IaH) practices in the literature illuminated the gap in putting internationalization crossways with intercultural learning, indicating the need to examine ways of integrating intercultural aspects such as cultural diversity in the internationalization of teaching and learning. Within this context, the chapter suggests the development of seminars based on a studied reading strategy entitled survey, question, read, recite, and review (SQ3R) in order to help Greeks comprehend the concept of cultural diversity by discussing the variation within a larger cultural group sharing a common basis. A lesson plan of such a seminar highlighting how the steps of implementing the SQ3R strategy could facilitate students' understanding and enhance their IaH experience is described. Recommendations for future research on the effectiveness of such seminars are offered suggesting their possible potential in becoming part of a language curriculum resource which could promote IaH.
