CONECTADOS promotes self-regulated learning. Learners preview the chapter topics; are presented with learning outcomes; work through guided, interactive activities to confirm their understanding of key points; and then reflect on what they have learned. Material is presented in manageable chunks with countless activities and support materials. In addition, formative feedback is provided for all auto-gradable activities in Gramática; students not only find out which items they have answered incorrectly, but also receive detailed explanations so that they better understand the source of their error. CONECTADOS fosters a sense of community within the classroom through social networking-type activities (Nosotros/Share It!) and a community page. It also connects students with the larger Spanish-speaking community by having them perform real-life tasks using authentic online sites (Exploración). CONECTADOS makes connections with other academic disciplines through the use of video sourced from National Geographic (Reportaje) and readings (Conectados con...). Students learn about a variety of subjects in Spanish and continue their exploration of other academic disciplines in Conexiones y comparaciones activities. CONECTADOS appeals to the millennial generation. It uses current technology that provides a variety of media-rich activities, immediate feedback, and learning through discovery and analysis rather than lectures. In-class activities are engaging, fun, and collaborative. CONECTADOS is flexible, customizable, and easy to use. Conceptualized to be used in face-to-face, hybrid (blended), and fully online courses, it includes convenient syllabi templates for easy planning.
