Specially designed communication activities motivate students to share information by providing each participant with somé information the other does not have. The Cassette consists of short interviews, telephone exchanges, public announcements, actual radio commercials, conversations, and other recordings of people speaking naturally with the normál pauses, hesitations, and interruptions that occur in authentic spoken language. The Teacher's Manual contains detailed notes on the activities as well as vocabulary suggestions, glossaries, answers (where appropriate), transcripts of the recordings, and suggestions for follow-up activities. . . Great Ideas remains faithful to its title. The listening and speaking activities provide plenty to talk about, covering a wide rangé of topics to suit a diversity of interest. Moreover, the text is enjoyable to use-both for students and teachers." -The Language Teacher Vissza
