SPAN 302 Identity in Latin American Literature

SPAN 302 is designed to provide intensive practice in conversation, reading and writing in the Spanish language. This course will examine identity and intersections of identity in Latin American Literature through the exploration of novels, performance pieces and essays. Using the course's content as the subject of academic inquiry, it also develops the four skills of communication in Spanish (reading, writing, speaking, and listening), with a special focus to real-time interpersonal and presentational oral production of cohesive paragraphs featuring narration and description in all tenses and on a variety of increasingly abstract and academic contexts. This course roughly targets the ACTFL Advanced-Mid rating. Teaching methodologies may include task-based, project-based, and other experiential learning assignments. Satisfies Diversity Requirement (D-CRES) due to extensive theory and practice in cross-cultural comparison. Taught in Spanish.
