ANGEL Course Management System
This is the course webspace in which students can find their homework assignments, PowerPoints used in class, study materials, and a place where students can communicate with each other and with me, their instructor.

http://www.spanishunlimited.com/su/
This website offers a variety of free services and information about the Spanish language including, but not limited to, colloquialisms, jokes, basic vocabulary, travel information and most importantly videos and audio files that serve as authentic material for the Spanish language learner.

http://www.wordreference.com/
This site is a great resource for me because it is very descriptive in its definitions and offers on-line forums where you can post any questions you might have and other students/native speakers of Spanish can respond.

http://www.studyspanish.com/
This website contains excellent (yet brief) grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation lessons, as well as creative practice activities, audio drills with native speakers, verb drills, and grammar quizzes where students receive immediate feedback. A good portion of these activities and exercises are free; however, if students subscribe to the site and pay a nominal fee, they will have access to more detailed lessons as well as to additional services and self-evaluation measures.

http://www.spaleon.com/index.php
This site focuses on verbs and provides a fairly comprehensive “conjugator” tool for individual verbs, as well as a conjugation trainer for students to practice the conjugation of infinitives, including the present tense, preterit, imperfect, future, present subjunctive, imperfect subjunctive, and conditional.

http://www.colby.edu/~bknelson/SLC/ojala/index.html
This website offers activities than can help students understand and practice using the present subjunctive through the analysis of a popular Dominican merengue song.

http://www.rae.es/rae.html
This is the "Real Academia Española" official website. Here students can look up both modern Spanish and prehispanic words. It contains much useful information such as linguistic resources, pubications and updates on current events in the Spanish speaking world, among other things.
