Te Toca! by Richard Pym & Mark Allinson
A New Communicative Spanish Course
Offering an approach to advanced language learning, this book uses language simulations aiming to take students into a virtual Spanish-speaking world where they adopt a new Spanish or Latin-American identity. It contains language simulations which draw and expand on students' linguistic, communication, and information-gathering skills."Languages are best learned when real-world information becomes the focus of students' activities. In this respect, "!Te Toca!" definitely encourages advanced learners to focus on exchanging real-life information about the world around them. Moreover, since the topics and issues presented in the book are controversial in nature, they seem especially appealing to college students." - Dr Maria Jesus Amores, University of West Virginia. "!Te Toca!" is a thoroughly innovative approach to advanced language learning. Imaginative, exciting and fun, it uses language simulations to take students into a virtual Spanish-speaking world where they adopt a new Spanish or Latin-American identity. Creating a learning environment in which they need to use Spanish to solve a problem or engage in debate, the language simulations draw and expand on students' linguistic, communication, and information-gathering skills. Covering a variety of engaging topics, the simulations literally put the students centre-stage, requiring them to think on their feet and speak exclusively in Spanish. The topics revolve around contentious issues and each chapter includes a simulation exercise with all its associated documents, as well as a lead text, comprehension questions, a guide to relevant points of functional grammar, associated exercises, a glossary of terms, and suggestions for written work. |
