This paper presents a proposal on how to select suitable vocabulary items to teach Spanish as a foreign language (SFL) based on the triangulation or complementation of three sources of lexical information: (1) the available lexicon in native Spanish speakers, (2) the most frequent vocabulary in Spanish and (3) the specific notions of the Plan curricular del Instituto Cervantes. Previously, an analysis of the lexical needs of a sample of SFL students has been carried out, whose results have been collated with the abovementioned sources of vocabulary. The found shortcomings have been evaluated in order to observe how they are covered by each of these three sources. It has been proven that each source covers different lexical needs (with a similarity of 12.5% in the covered needs and a lexical compatibility of the sources of 24%), so the viability of the triangulation is justified. The resulting proposal offers a lexical compilation in different levels that combines the benefits of several well-established selection criteria and overcomes the limitations arising from using them individually.

Based on a specific teaching experience, this paper reveals some specific factors for learning language and Spanish culture during the process of creating a theatre workshop with a group of students from China. Since 2013, the University of Lleida (Spain) through the Diploma of Hispanic Studies (DEH) and the collaboration of Aula Municipal de Teatre of Lleida has taught theatre workshops previously with public presentation conducted entirely in Spanish, with Chinese students who not only want linguistic immersion in Hispanic environment, but also cultural. The advantages and the results obtained are detailed thanks to the use of dramatic expression in the learning of Spanish as a Foreign Language (ELE) as well as the difficulties, the didactics and the methodology used during four academic courses with 75 Chinese students.

The aim of this paper is to show in detail a teaching approach to change the way of teaching (to teach) Spanish (or any other first language) at university. To do this, the idea that this change must be created at the beginning of the educational system -that is, the teacher training- is taken as a basis. Hence, a teaching experience carried out with teachers-to-be in the subject "Spanish Language Teaching" is presented. This experience applies the cases study to learn (to teach) Spanish and includes several active methodologies, such as cooperative learning and the task-based approach. The results, focused both on the vision of the subject as a whole and on the specific activity that concerns us, suggest a general acceptance of the methodologies used. Nevertheless, the main conclusion also contains a series of paradoxes that affect especially those who do not feel comfortable learning with the above mentioned case studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Partial cognates are words in two languages that share similar visual and phonetic features, and its meaning in both can also be similar in some contexts, but different in others. This research article is based on a qualitative methodology, and aims to analyze the use of English- Spanish partial cognates in academic texts produced in English by researchers from Universidad de Oriente, thus Spanish speakers. The sample for this analysis consisted of 22 academic papers, including resumes, doctoral proposals, international scholarship foundations and foundations of collaborative projects, all written as part of the collaboration project Cuba- Belgium VLIR. The main results of this research are the explanation of the use of partial cognates in these texts, and of how they affect the correct transmission of the message. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
