[Infographics] Inmersión Lingüística Digital (ILD)

Linguistic immersion (either associated to Study Abroad programmes, mobility exchanges or content-based language learning) is considered a key aspect within the developmental process and activation of any essential linguistic competences of a Spanish language student. In a world in which hybrid teaching models and digital learning are becoming the norm, telecollaboration and online exchanges are meant to complement, extend or even replace many of the in-person immersion experiences carried out by students across the Spanish-speaking world.

This infographic captures the implications of what we call Digital Linguistic Immersion (DLI) in our research. A new concept and approach that we use to refer to teaching and learning contexts that are enriched with virtual learning environments (VLE), driven by methodological approaches focused in student action and interaction, promoting telecollaboration and transmedia language production.
