Environmental and Sustainable Development - Spanish Speaking World

Class discussions and activities emphasize active use of the language in different contexts including professional discussions, interviews, cultural exchanges, debates on current topics, etc.

The course has two distinct goals:

(1) to expand the vocabulary related to environmental issues, as well as the ability to read, analyze and discuss articles on said topic; and

(2) to present an overview of environmental issues and questions in the Hispanic countries today.

Students will engage in vocabulary-expanding exercises, review of advanced grammar rules as needed, individual and group presentations, writing and speaking assignments related to the most current environmental issues today.
