Students will study technological and social change. They will study highlights of Hispanic artistic culture, including a focus on Spanish regional identity and the cultural heritage of past civilisations. Students will explore the influence of the past on present-day Spanish-speaking communities. Throughout their studies, they will learn the language in the context of Spanish-speaking countries and the issues and influences which have shaped them. Students will study a text or a film. Assessment tasks will be varied and cover listening, speaking, reading and writing skills.  \n1.2 Support and resources to help you teach  \nWe’ve worked with experienced teachers to provide you with a range of resources that will help you confidently plan, teach and prepare for exams.  \nTeaching resources  \n[Visit](Visit aqa.org.uk/7691)[ ](Visit aqa.org.uk/7691)[aqa.org.uk/7691](Visit aqa.org.uk/7691) to see all our teaching resources.
