I just looked at courses in Spanish and I liked them a lot. Obviously, there are many courses that still have to be translated, but what you already have looks good to me. I did notice that in some instances the word niños was misspelled. First, on the menu on the left, and also when you click on any of the courses. The problem is that instead of niños, you have ninos.
Also, I think it would be a great idea to design courses for the Spanish heritage language learners as their linguistic needs are completely different than the needs of ESL and EFL students. I think, it would be great if, in the future, we could design a Spanish language course for heritage speakers. In case you ever need help with bilingual education please let me know. My MA degree is in Instructional Design with the concentration on Teaching English as a Second Language/Bilingual Education.
I also think that it would be great if we could design a Spanish course for American children where they would be able to learn basics of the Spanish language.
Please let me know what you think about these ideas? Are there major obstacles that would prevent us from designing any of these courses (I understand that funding is one of them).
