Timeline

Aug 2019 – June 2020

Overview

The aim of this project is to offer our students a full-fledged online, non-stop, three-credit course of intermediate (CEFR B1) Spanish grammar. The focus is on the practice and strengthening of the subjunctive. The course contents, texts, videos and activities will include both some work-related and business-related vocabulary along with a number of communication situations in the specialization fields of Aalto University. As a result, the students will not only practice some important grammar but they will also improve their ability to speak and write about their studies or their (future) working-life projects in Spanish.

The Aalto University campus will be the fictional setting where the activities and other contents of the course take place. In this environment, our students will work on their own startup project. We will use some fictional characters to walk our students though the process of getting their own startup off the ground…¡y en español!
