本文探讨了使用已经存在的语言学习应用程序Duolingo作为第二语言课程来补充传统的大学水平西班牙语课程的想法。这些类型的应用程序使用自适应学习技术，能够根据每个学生的水平定制任务。在这项研究中，Duolingo被用作两个西班牙大学课程的学习计划的一部分，一个是初级西班牙语课程(A1级)，另一个是高级中级课程(B2级)。学生们在网上使用了这款应用，无论是在手机版本中还是在他们的网络浏览器中。我将描述Duolingo是如何运作的，可以做什么活动，以及如何实现学习。初步结果表明，Duolingo是一款简单易用的应用程序，很有用，也很有潜力，尽管它的主要教训并不是基于沟通能力。它通常受到学生的喜爱，因为它有几个元素，比如移动设备上的可访问性、游戏化方面以及任务的多样性。我将讨论将多林戈语言融入外语课程的可能方法，始终将其视为课程的补充，但考虑到它通过间隔重复、不同技能的交叉和各种活动来加强词汇和语法习得的价值。
This article explores the idea of using an already existing language learning app, Duolingo, to complement traditional college level Spanish as second language courses. These types of apps use adaptive learning technologies, which are able to tailor the tasks to the level of each student. In the case of this study, Duolingo was used as part of the program of studies in two Spanish university courses, one a beginner’s Spanish course (level A1) and the other an advanced intermediate course (B2). The students used the app online, either in its mobile version or in their web browser. I will describe how Duolingo operates, what kind of activities can be done, and how learning is achieved. Preliminary results suggest that Duolingo is an easy-to-use app that is useful and has potential, although its main lessons are not based on communicative competence. It is usually enjoyed by students because of several elements, such as the accessibility on a mobile device, its gamification aspect, and the variety of tasks. I will discuss possible ways to incorporate Duolingo into foreign language courses, always considering it as a complement to the curriculum, but considering its value to reinforce vocabulary and grammar acquisition through spaced repetition, interleaving of different skills and variety of activities.
