Abstract
ABSTRACTMultilingual students learning English face changes in developing intercultural communicative competence outside the classroom. This Classroom Exploration, informed by frameworks of intercultural communicative competence, willingness to communicate, and cultural adaptation, explores the use of reflection comics in a service‐learning course for first‐year international university students. Students created comics depicting key moments during their volunteer work. Analysis of a comic reveals how the medium of a comic with images, speech bubbles, and thought bubbles focuses a student's attention on verbal and nonverbal communication with other participants within a specific social context.
