Titulo: La literatura como auxiliar en la enseñanza del español como lengua extranjera,
Descripción: El estudio de otra lengua a través de la literatura provee a los estudiantes la oportunidad de explorar la perspectiva cultural y de conocimiento, los anima a hacer conexiones y comparaciones desde el punto de vista literario y cultural, ayudándolos a su vez con el desarrollo y proficiencia en el uso del lenguaje así como la habilidad de análisis desde un punto crítico.
Los participantes podrán explorar diferentes estrategias a ser usadas en el salón de clase conjuntamente con obras literarias enmarcadas en los temas de AP Lengua y Literatura.
