This essay highlights a critical assessment approach for intercultural communication courses that engages in a "doing--undoing" practice for instructors, with the aim of "doing" culture as learned through society and traditional intercultural communication instruction with the limited, romanticized, and settler colonial presumptions and representations about culture and then subsequently "undoing" these constructions of culture. Students engage in a traditional intercultural communication assignment staple--the cultural interview--in order to traverse and trace how culture is framed and the presumptions and ideologies based in power are deeply embedded. This essay seeks to share this "doing--undoing' practice via an explication of this original teaching idea for a semester through one activity.
