SP 361 - Spanish in the Media (4 Cr.)

(GCR RPP and FL - Platform 4)(GCR Humanities and Interdisciplinary Studies area)

The media and the press shape not only language use but identity formation among Spanish-speakers in Latin America and the United States. With this in mind, the goal of this course is to explore the emergence of a universal or transnational Spanish that seeks to generate a Pan-Hispanic identity while respecting multicultural perspectives. The course will refine oral and written language skills in a variety of media formats. Prerequisite: SP 235 or placement exam. Variable semesters. Program faculty.
