Description

Website project I developed as part of my portfolio on digital creativity for language teaching and learning. It aims to explore the creative use of technologies to enhance language education and promote social learning through digital storytelling and interactive experiences. By providing a space for conviviality and sharing, this project enables learners to engage with innovative digital tools and resources under my supervision, fostering collaborative and creative educational practices.

The website features a practical course designed to teach useful Spanish for socializing with friends and colleagues. This course, created by María José Gonzálvez, serves as a test version for a study on the use of technologies in learning Spanish as a second language.

The course is based on a collaborative approach, allowing learners to interact with both the teacher and classmates. Lessons leverage the pedagogical use of technologies and visual content within a social and creative environment.

Learning Outcomes:

Acquire the everyday language skills needed for work, travel, and socializing.

Gain functional language skills presented in a cross-cultural context, helping to build successful business and social relationships and avoid communication breakdowns.

Follow a straightforward syllabus covering grammar, vocabulary, speaking, and listening, with clear learning objectives.

Successfully complete tasks in each lesson through collaboration with other participants and the tutor.
