Abstract

This paper explores a teaching methodology —within the frame of Linguistics Applied to Language Teaching— for the development of written skills in other languages by college students. This proposal has been designed as part of the teaching experience with students belonging to the Northwest Cadiz Program. Students from the Universities of Washington and Western Washington go to Cadiz to enjoy a language immersion experience. Written skills in Spanish as a Foreign Language (SFL) are encouraged exposing them to printed texts in both English and Spanish. This methodology favours contrastive analysis among both languages, translation, as well as writing academic essays in the target language within the context of higher education.
