The Open Education Development Series Companion Guide provides insight into the conception, design, and facilitation of Boise State University's Open Education Development Series (OEDS). The OEDS is a set of openly licensed courses available on Canvas Commons that support faculty knowledge, use, and creation of open education resources (OER). Following our AIM strategy, we explain the Alignment processes that helped ensure our series was both rigorous and adaptable to faculty readiness levels; the approach we took to Incentivize the program; and our efforts in providing Mentorship and support to the faculty participants. If you are looking to use the OEDS in whole or in part at your institution, or if you are seeking some ideas or inspiration behind your own open education development program, we hope you find value and use in this companion guide.

This text is a remix of chapters 1-4 of the open textbook, "El Español por el Mundo" by Gemma Morawski Ani Alcocer. Vocabulary was pulled from the original text and exercises were developed to help students practice new Spanish terminology.

Spanish Conversation is designed to facilitate opportunities for Spanish students to grow their interpretive and interpersonal communication skills which are necessary for Spanish conversation. This textbook is appropriate for Spanish majors and minors who fall within the range of intermediate-mid to advanced-low oral proficiency. The book is grounded in a theoretical framework in frequency and usage-based linguistics which prioritizes practice and application of the most frequent words and Spanish used in context so that students can participate in real-world tasks in the Spanish-speaking world.  The textbook integrates a wide variety of materials, including podcasts, videos, readings, and realia. These expose students to the rich cultural and linguistic diversity representative of the Spanish-speaking world.

Teachers using this textbook will also have access to rubrics and formative and summative assessments based largely on an Integrated Performance Assessment model but given the scope of the course (Spanish conversation), assessments are limited to the interpretive and interpersonal modes of communication, only.
