Scope
Aims, scope and focus
La revista electrónica SinoELE tiene como objetivo principal difundir la investigación científica sobre didáctica de español como lengua extranjera (E/LE) en contextos sinohablantes y, por tanto, está abierta a las colaboraciones de todos aquellos autores que trabajan en este campo específico. SinoELE publica investigaciones de interés científico, originales y rigurosas, sobre cualquier tema relacionado con la enseñanza de español a sinohablantes. La revista sólo acoge trabajos claramente definidos dentro de esta línea de investigación, es decir, no publica trabajos sobre didáctica de E/LE que no estén centrados en el ámbito sinohablante: éste no puede constituir un mero aspecto secundario o derivado de los trabajos, sino el principal foco de atención.
