Reviews
" El cine documental is an innovative intermediate/advanced textbook that focuses on communication while increasing students' cultural awareness. All the materials used are authentic, which allows students to explore common trends in Latin America and experience different dialects. At the core of each chapter is a documentary film, but other authentic materials such as readings and songs are included too. One of the most innovative features of El cine documental is that it introduces students to culturally relevant topics in an interesting and engaging manner. It is not always easy to introduce the realities of Latin America to U.S. students but El cine documental provides students with the background and the tools necessary to successfully discuss topics such as human rights, child poverty, violence, and gender inequalities. El cine documental is designed with intermediate/advanced students in mind. Students at this level need to refine their reading and writing skills. The authors' approach to writing is particularly interesting. They emphasize writing as a process and walk students through the steps that should be followed. Another important aspect is that students are required to write a wide range of documents. This should help them get ready for upper-level or more advanced courses where writing tends to be a key component. Also, students at the intermediate/advanced level need to improve and expand their vocabulary. El cine documental introduces students to the vocabulary needed to understand the documentary and to discuss the topic. The culminating activities included at the end of each chapter provide meaningful ways for students to reflect on their learning and to put everything into perspective. Reflecting on the learning process is an important component of any course and this is the goal of the last three sections of the chapter: an expansion section that asks students to work on a formal presentation of a topic related to the chapter theme; a debate, which forces students to consider the main theme from different perspectives; and the diario (diary) section, which allows students to reflect on what they have learned. El cine documental is certainly a unique an innovative textbook, which can easily be adapted to be used in conversation and/or composition classes. It provides students and instructors with ample opportunities to discuss relevant cultural topics while working on all skills." --Isabel Álvarez, University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, " El cine documental is one of the most engaging textbooks to teach about contemporary issues in Latin America. My students are able to learn the material assigned and, by means of powerful documentaries, connect with real people and tangible challenges. Moreover, the vocabulary and grammar section allow them to continue improving their Spanish proficiency." --Osvaldo Di Paolo Harrison, Austin Peay State University, "This is a very compact but effective text that powerfully supports language learning via activities and exercises based on authentic documentaries. . . . The book does total justice to what it sets out to do by treating cutting edge topics such as the environment, globalization, war and peace, immigration, human rights, feminism, sports, and poverty and hope. . . . The material is designed to ensure the rapid development of students' Spanish vocabulary and communicative abilities. The contents, design and approach prepare them to be not just more effective communicators but also more aware global citizens. The method is eminently suitable for any passionate instructor of Spanish. The price is very affordable for students." --Dr. Shonu Nagia, Professor of Foreign Languages, Louisana State University at Alexandria
