Making Communicative Language Teaching Happen is the first title in a professional series of Foreign Language Teaching Methods texts. Written by well-known and respected teachers and researchers in the field of Second Language Acquisition, Making Communicative Language Teaching Happen addresses important questions such as what it means to teach communicatively, what are proper roles of input and output in the classroom, how do learners read and write in a second language, and what approaches to testing and evaluation are appropriate for the communicative classroom. Making Communicative Language Teaching Happen begins by defining communicative language teaching and proceeds to explore its underlying assumptions, to examine the roles of teachers and learners, to discuss theoretical and research issues relating to it, and to offer practical suggestions. A Student Manual accompanies the text.

Que Te Parece

Ideas is an intermediate or advanced reader that emphasizes the use of reading strategies to help students become more effective readers. It has a unique format, with all readings found in the six chapters of Parte I, which are designed to look like individual magazines on high interest topics such as pets, food, relations between the sexes, and so on. Reading strategies plus exercises, as well as lively activities that stimulate in-class conversation and composition topics make up Parte II. The entire text is in Spanish, including the reading strategies themselves. All readings--from Hispanic magazines and literature--are authentic and unedited.
