Core teaching takes place through Spanish language and study skills workshops, with an emphasis on interaction among students as well as between students and Artificial Intelligence (AI), and on the active participation of all learners, both inside and outside the classroom, through blended learning activities. In addition, guided reading and directed study will be carried out so that students can prepare for classes, reinforce content, and develop autonomous learning strategies with the support of AI (for example, through linguistic correction tools which also provide feedback, personalized exercise generation, or conversation assistants). Likewise, online resources will be used alongside AI applications to complement face-to-face sessions and workshops, facilitating access to additional materials and immediate feedback.
