[edit] ACTIVE LISTENING 2: BUILDING SKILLS FOR UNDERSTANDING AUDIO CDS

This book helps students listen for gist and specific information, to make inferences and to progress to content-based activities.

Active Listening: Building Skills for Understanding is the middle level of the Active Listening series, a three-level listening course in North American English that draws on recent research in comprehension. This low-intermediate to intermediate text offers 20 engaging, task-based units, each built around a topic, function, or grammatical theme. Active Listening activates students' knowledge of a topic before they listen, giving them a frame of reference to make predictions about what they will hear. Students learn to listen through a careful balance of activities including listening for gist, listening for specific information, and making inferences. Major features: - a RBefore You BeginS unit to develop awareness of listening strategies - pre-listening schema-building activities - a carefully balanced variety of listening tasks - natural recordings with a range of accents - short readings to provide cross-cultural information - a speaking activity in every unit. This level of Active Listening consists of a Student's Book, an interleaved Teacher's Edition, two Cassettes, and three audio CDs.
