Abstract
This course is contemplated as an approach to the societies that form the Hispanic world, from a double point of view: in one hand, in the perspective of the different nations that compose this international community and, in the other, with different aspects that define it, such as politics, news, traditions, culture, etc.
Objective
As we noted in the description, this course aims to show the student a first sight of the contemporary reality of the Spanish-speaking community in the world, basically through journalistic-relevant texts. To this purpose, we aim to work in two axes: First, due the magnitude of the Hispanic world, we will focus in a nation or a region each week, achieving a deeper perspective as in a general view. Secondly, the different points of view that we can use to this approach are multiple, stimulating so the own interest of the different students. Through our methodology we seek that the next skills will be practiced: reading, writing and oral interaction. To this aim, we will offer reading and writing activities (both in class and in the online platform) as well as oral debates in class.
