[email protected] | Customer Support 1-800-269-6311 13 The Student Edition has a brand-new design to make the learning experience as intuitive as possible. Revised Learning Objectives on the Chapter Opener pages and new Learning Objectives in each section make the learning process transparent and help students understand the purpose and intention behind everything they do. Can-do Statements at the end of each section promote student self-reflection about their own progress. Proyecto oral and Proyecto escrito in each lesson give students an opportunity to use the language they are learning creatively, in engaging and collaborative tasks where they have to think critically, negotiate in groups, and present their work to the rest of the class. The projects are supported by guiding questions, examples, and a rubric to set clear expectations. Authentic video collection: Interpretive listening skills and cultural competency are developed with compelling authentic videos, which replace the previous cultural videos in each lesson. These thought-provoking authentic videos were carefully chosen to reflect a variety of formats and facilitate discussion about current issues, including social justice themes, as well as offer a wide range of voices and perspectives from across the Spanish-speaking world. Supersite offers an unparalleled digital learning environment with integrated content, resources, and tools built exclusively to support language learning. Focus on Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice Themes As students gain confidence in their own language skills, Dicho y hecho aims at fostering contexts that are inclusive of diverse backgrounds and perspectives. Some of the selected readings, videos, and cultural topics will facilitate insightful discussions about important topics, such as what family means to you, an affordable housing program in Colombia, how mental health affects students in Spain, why a group of women in Mexico is fighting cultural appropriation in the fashion industry, and a discussion about race and visibility of the Afro community in Spain.
