CABRERA GONZALEZ, Ada C.; VAZQUEZ MACIAS, Norma B.; BENAVIDES GARRIGA, Ileana  y  ABREU MARQUEZ, Evelyn. Teaching experience with non-Spanish speaking architecture students to analyze description. Arquitectura y Urbanismo [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.2, pp. 112-116. ISSN 1815-5898.

Foreign students that do not speak Spanish in the faculty of architecture in Cuba receive Spanish classes for the first two years of their career. An essential content is to analyze different types of texts, specifically descriptive ones. The purpose of this paper is to present a teaching experience about the instruction of content description. The experience is centred on how the content related to the profession. The novel ¨Cecilia Valdés¨ from Cirilo Villaverde was chosen because it is an extraordinary picture of the XIX century and where students can learn the characteristics of social life in Cuba during that period. Students were greatly motivated by the experience and developed professional skills which are very important to future architects.

Palabras clave : teaching experience; students; architecture; analysis; description.
