Abstract
This article builds on an articulation of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages’ (ACTFL) communication standards, namely interpersonal communication, to stress the importance of prioritizing students’ interactive and communicative skills in Spanish for Specific Purposes (SSP) courses. The authors examine, through an exploratory analysis of open-access SSP syllabi, how instructors align the practice of interpersonal communication skills with course learning objectives.
