SPAN 320 Creative Writing in Spanish

This is a creative writing course in Spanish. It will use creative writing to explore and deepen students’ understanding of the Spanish language, Latin American literature, and the various stages of the writing process (prewriting, drafting, editing, revising). The course will use critical readings of different texts and genres (poetry, short stories, novels, crónicas) as models for student assignments and creative writing projects. The course will be divided into different sections, each with a different focus related to genre and specific writing goals. Students will choose one of the writing exercises/assignments in each section to develop, draft, and workshop for a grade. In total, they will produce four creative writing assignments during the semester. [GM2, W]
