El espanol para fines especificos en Latinoamerica

"El espaänol para fines especâificos en Latinoamâerica is the first book to bring together the various lines of research being carried out on teaching Spanish for Specific Purposes (SSP) across Latin America. Divided into two parts, the book offers invaluable research into Spanish for academia and Spanish for professional purposes in Latin America with a particular focus on pedagogical practices for university classrooms. Comprised of studies by scholars from seven different Latin American countries (Chile, Costa Rica, Cuba, Brazil, Guatemala, Mexico and Peru), this volume explores themes individual to the region and concerns relevant to the teaching of Spanish in these environments. Through these studies, El espaänol para fines especâificos en Latinoamâerica illustrates how the field of SSP can respond to specific needs within Latin America by exploring issues specific to the region through exploring different approaches to the field of applied linguistics. This unique volume will be of interest to researchers in the areas of Spanish language pedagogy, Spanish for Specific Purposes, and applied linguistics"--
