Students answer an essential question by completing an authentic task, such as writing a report on a cultural event. Through sustained investigation, reflection, and peer review tasks, students engage in target-language media exploration, develop their personal interests and communication skills, and engage with the global community. • Fotonovela is an episodic drama series that follows the adventures of a family and friends in Oaxaca, México. As the storyline unfolds, the episodes combine new vocabulary and grammar with previously taught language. Fotonovela provides valuable comprehensible language input, building on what students have already learned and introducing them to new vocabulary and grammar in context. • AI-Assisted Feedback Maximize efficiency and enhance learning with our AI-Assisted Feedback tool. Designed specifically for open-ended and composition activities, this innovative feature saves instructors valuable time while providing them an easy way to share thoughtful, engaging feedback with students on their writing. • Video Virtual Chat in the A recordar pre-viewing activity gives students the opportunity to recap the previous episode by chatting with the characters from the Fotonovela. • Group and individual video recording submission expand student production Group Chat and Individual Recording Activities allow single or multiple students to record a video production exercise, providing instructors with more flexibility in creating and assigning activities to groups within their classes. Group Chat offers valuable practice that simulates the conversations most typical to a language classroom. These activities also ready students for authentic communication with native speakers, which typically occurs in a group setting. • Student Portfolio The new Student Portfolio is an integrated digital tool that allows students to curate a collection of work showcasing their language learning progress, growth, and achievements over time. These collections illustrate the student’s experience and the products of their learning, becoming meaningful through reflection, which facilitates students’ understanding of their learning and what they can do with the language.
