Description:

The aim of this course is to enhance written and oral skills in Spanish and to engender a detailed and sophisticated understanding of the major cultural, historical, and political tendencies of Spain and the societies of the Southern Cone of Latin America. After learning the basics of "podcasting" production (Internet telephony, digital editing, and RSS syndication), students will produce a bi-weekly internet radio program which will place special emphasis on the study of the urban cultures of Barcelona and Montevideo and the flow of ideas between the South America and the Iberian worlds. When researching, writing, and producing the required 10 hours of finished programming, student production teams are expected to communicate not only with faculty and student "correspondents" at Trinity's global learning sites, but also with relevant artists, writers, politicians and cultural entrepreneurs on both sides of the Atlantic bas Prerequisite: A grade of C- or better in HISP270 and one of the following: HISP261 or HISP262 or HISP263 or HISP264; or Permission of the Instructor. 1.00 units, Lecture
