This text is disseminated via the Open Education Resource (OER) LibreTexts Project (https:\/\/LibreTexts.org) and like the hundreds of other texts available within this powerful platform, it is freely available for reading, printing and “consuming.” Most, but not all, pages in the library have licenses that may allow individuals to make changes, save, and print this book. Carefully consult the applicable license(s) before pursuing such effects.<\/p>\n
Instructors can adopt existing LibreTexts texts or Remix them to quickly build course-specific resources to meet the needs of their students. Unlike traditional textbooks, LibreTexts\u2019 web based origins allow powerful integration of advanced features and new technologies to support learning.<\/p>\n
The LibreTexts mission is to unite students, faculty and scholars in a cooperative effort to develop an easy-to-use online platform for the construction, customization, and dissemination of OER content to reduce the burdens of unreasonable textbook costs to our students and society. The LibreTexts project is a multi-institutional collaborative venture to develop the next generation of openaccess texts to improve postsecondary education at all levels of higher learning by developing an Open Access Resource environment. The project currently consists of 14 independently operating and interconnected libraries that are constantly being optimized by students, faculty, and outside experts to supplant conventional paper-based books. These free textbook alternatives are organized within a central environment that is both vertically (from advance to basic level) and horizontally (across different fields) integrated.<\/p>\n
El presente espacio virtual ofrece acceso libre a nueve lecciones originales orientadas a la ense\u00f1anza y enriquecimiento del espa\u00f1ol de estudiantes de nivel intermedio. Cada lecci\u00f3n consta de lecturas escritas en espa\u00f1ol y de actividades de corte comunicativo. En su totalidad, estos materiales -recursos educativos de acceso libre- invitan al razonamiento cr\u00edtico de ocho temas estrechamente ligados al mundo hispanoamericano.<\/p>\n
Docentes y estudiantes, en consonancia con el uso de recursos educativos de acceso libre que en ingl\u00e9s se identifican con las siglas de OER (open educational resources), son bienvenidos a beneficiarse de los materiales. M\u00e1s importante a\u00fan, desde estas l\u00edneas el llamado es a tomar las lecciones compartidas como punto de partida de esas discusiones que muchas veces enriquecen nuestras aulas, especialmente en el contexto estadounidense; es decir, donde el espa\u00f1ol es de a\u00f1eja presencia y vibrante naturaleza socioling\u00fc\u00edstica.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
