{"product_id":"basic-conversation-strategies-david-kehe-9780866473101","title":"Basic Conversation Strategies: Learning the Art of Interactive Listening and Conversing","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBasic Conversation Strategies\u003c\/i\u003e is a prequel to the intermediate -level \u003ci\u003eConversation Strategies\u003c\/i\u003e. One significant difference is that \u003ci\u003eBasic Conversation Strategies\u003c\/i\u003e has an important listening component. Conversation is, after all, not just speaking; it also involves listening, and a major part of the approach in this book includes training learners to be good listeners.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThere are three components to this material. The Student Workbook contains everything students will need to do the exercises, except the material they need to listen and respond to. This material is available as Downloadable Audio. The Student Workbook does not contain printed versions of the listening input because real conversation is not accompanied with sub-titles or closed captions. The printed version of the listening input is available in the Teacher's Edition, available at ProLinguaLearning.com, which is an essential component of Basic Conversation Strategies. The Teacher's Edition contains the entire Student Workbook and the complete scripts of all the listening input, plus teaching notes and suggestions, as well as feedback and evaluation forms.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Downloadable Audio (visit ProLinguaLearning.com) has 67 listening exercises containing six types of exercises: 1) Listen and Fill- In, 2) Circle, 3) Choose, 4) Repeat, 5) Respond, and 6) Write.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMany of the audio-based exercises are in dialogue format, spoken by four native speakers. Although the Audio component is not essential (the teacher can speak the input), the material will be more effective and easier to manage if the students have access to the Audio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Kehe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0866473106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780866473101\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pro Lingua Learning\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.07lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.40d","brand":"David Kehe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44046055768319,"sku":"9780866473101","price":26.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c3d8a7a4-9d35-4bc9-9a67-890f78f47e6f.jpg?v=1684982361","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/basic-conversation-strategies-david-kehe-9780866473101","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
