Expanding the Spanish Classroom: The "Art" in Liberal Arts
Díaz, Erin M.
Hispania, v99 n3 p436-448 Sep 2016
Supplementing the foreign language curriculum with the incorporation of art museum visits has benefits for students, faculty, the campus art gallery, and the institution. Such a collaborative program serves to expand the classroom and complement instruction by providing learners with a new space to engage in authentic practice in the target language. This simple yet effective design was also adapted to a Spanish for the Business Professions course, which is outlined in this current study.
