This is a communicatively based Spanish Language textbook focused on offering students the resources to become more aware of the diversity of the Spanish speaking world. Each chapter will include opportunities to read, write, react and converse with classmates, the instructor and to make connections with the Spanish speaking world through meaningful interactions.
Long Description: This textbook was developed to give students and their instructors free and open access to a textbook aimed at the Introductory level of Spanish.
