This course is one of two cultural courses taught entirely in Spanish from a total of eight Spanish courses offered at RMIT University.

The course will build on your existing knowledge of the Spanish language, social and cultural aspects through the study of selected Spanish media and/or literary texts by examining a range of topical issues highlighted in the type of media being studied.

Through the analysis of a range of authentic materials (e.g., film, short films, documentary), you will be able to analyse the social and cultural contexts of from Spain, and Latin America.

You will have the opportunity to broaden your interests and knowledge of contemporary Spanish and Latin American cultures and society.

You will be encouraged to be responsible for your own learning and to build on your knowledge to a level where you can continue with further self-directed learning.

The course will equip you with further knowledge for cross-cultural situations within the framework of language and associated non-verbal communication.
