Spanish Intensive 3 is designed for students who successfully finished Intensive 2. Through this course and the part of the following Intensive 4, we aim to cover the "B1" level based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), where the learner is able to deal with standard situations encountered in work, schoool, or leisure. The learner will also be able to produce logically-constructed texts. We will therefore deal with relatively complex communicative situations and linguistic structures.

The main theme of this course is Grammar Analysis for Communication.
We will review some grammar theme (B1 to B2 level) from communicative point of view. The aim is not to study grammar rules, but to understand how grammatical forms relates to the communicative intention.
The linguistic unit of analysis is the sentence (subject + verb) or clause, but we will try go beyond the structural analysis using a framework of information about the context of the sentence (context, speaker, recipient, message). Also imagine the communicative intentions of the speaker and use your imagination as to how the message might be interpreted by the receiver.
The main theme of this lecture is the theoretical understanding and practical practice of mediation activities in Spanish, newly presented in the 2017 augmented edition of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (Marco común de referencia para las lenguas, MCER). In this version, language mediation activities are first classified into three categories: (1) text mediation, (2) concept mediation and (3) communication mediation.
In this course, the language activity covering all of (1) to (3) will be particularly focused on infographics on various social situations presented by the Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas (INE), as well as graphs, diagrams and charts containing information on various social, economic, business management, etc. in Spanish-speaking countries, which will be read and presented as targeted mediation activities to communicate to others in a clear way.
In this course, the students will first learn what the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (MCER) is and what the teaching guidelines Plan curricular del Instituto Cervantes (PCIC), which reflect its principles in Spanish language teaching, are. They will also understand that linguistic activities include receptive, productive, interactive, and mediated activities, and how the CEFR and PCIC regard mediated activities within these categories. Specifically, they will learn the theoretical foundations, including how mediating activity is defined in Spanish Language learning.
The second half of the lecture focuses on practical exercises, and one of the goals is to be able to create an infographic about the thesis they are working on and explain it in Spanish.
This class aims to continue the acquisition of knowledge in the Spanish language and practice the expressions, vocabulary and grammar learnt in previous courses. At the same time, this course will enable students to improve their writing, reading and speaking skills.

The Nikkei Communities in Latin America and Japan.
In this course we will explore the Nikkei communities in Latin America from a historical and cultural perspective. Students will analyze the historical background of the Japanese migration to Latin America, the settlement and community development. The analysis of the historical processes will enable the students to understand the contemporary features of Nikkei communities in different Latin American societies. In the second part of the course, we will examine the so-called “return migration” to Japan. This analysis aims to understand these ethnic minorities, whose temporary migration has gradually turned into a permanent stay.
Along the course we aim to consider the main causes and effects of migration, the cultural characteristics of the migrants and their families, and the effects of their settlement on their children education. Additionally, we will discuss the migrants’ identity and the maintenance (or non) of their heritage language.
