Abstract
Culture is not taught in a vacuum or learned in isolation; an ongoing dialogue and negotiation takes place between teachers, students, subjects, and context. This happens both explicitly and implicitly, and the implicit dialogue and negotiation is especially in focus here. Teaching and learning are influenced by many factors both inside and outside the classroom and, at the same time, also influence the context.
