Foundation course in Spanish

This introductory program presents the fundamentals of the Spanish language with emphasis on communicative competence and contemporary culture. The text's wide range of structured and open-ended activities build all four skills. Computer Study Modules offer additional practice of vocabulary, grammar, and reading comprehension. Correlated to the text, the Telesituaciones Video features nine modules, each with a situation, thematic documentary shots, and functional, interactive segments of native speakers in authentic natural settings. The accompanying Telesituaciones Video workbook provides abundant and helpful pre- and post-viewing activities for each video module.
