| Learning objectives |
To achieve the grade 12, students should meet the
following learning objectives with no or only minor mistakes or
errors:
- Content:
- present a well-structured summary of text excerpts and
establish links between the topics and concepts raised in the text
and the region-specific political, economic and social features
introduced in the course literature of the 1st and 2nd semester,
and
- identify and describe key institutions, moments and figures in
the regions studied.
- Language:
- communicate in sufficiently coherent Spanish so that the
responses are intelligible
- using appropriate Spanish vocabulary, and
- speak in grammatically accurate and well-pronounced Spanish,
that is, avoiding major grammatical, lexical, idiomatic or
pronunciation errors that inhibit communication. At this stage,
students should be able to show some degree of linguistic awareness
by beginning to correct their errors in the exam
situation.

| Course content and structure |
|
The second semester of Spanishstudies builds on the knowledge
acquired during the first semester, with a particular focus on
culture and communication in Spain and Spanish America. Course
topics include: culture in its national, regional and local
expressions, the culture ‘industry’, and the role played by ICTs
and the information society in cultural and political modernisation
processes and governance.
The course builds on the themes presented in the first semester
Globalisation Studies course. The themes are presented in
conjunction with perspectives and concepts rooted in the specific
language area, so that students develop an understanding of
different theoretical traditions, and enhance their nationally
specific knowledge as well as their cultural
sensitivity
|
| Teaching methods |
| All teaching and reading will be in Spanish. A
combination of lectures, class discussions and student
presentations will develop students’ knowledge and ability to
analyse and understand current cultural and social processes in the
chosen region. |

and/or during office hours. |
