Students in the Spanish 4813 class produced a two hour live show on salsa titled 'The Latin American Music Radio'  The show was conducted entirely in Spanish and was broadcast on November 24 on WREK, Georgia Tech's student run radio station.

Professor Juan Carlos Rodriguez  who teaches this class revealed that "the idea behind this class project is to offer students the opportunity to develop their Spanish skills through the production of a radio show entirely in Spanish. I consider that the music radio show format could become a fantastic tool in the context of language and intercultural education here at Georgia Tech."

To listen to the program, please click on the last show play icon on the link below. The show starts after 3-4 minutes of announcements.
