The third edition of this time-tested series has been fully updated to meet the needs of today's students with a full-color design, up-to-date vocabulary, enhanced cultural coverage, a diverse cast of characters, additional communicative and interactive exercises, and a realistic storyline linking all the dialogues and readings. Integrated Chinese is ideally suited for students with diverse learning styles who want a comprehensive grounding in the Chinese language. The series provides coordinated practice in the four skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing, as well as additional insight into Chinese culture and society. Throughout the series, Integrated Chinese builds on the three modes of communication-interpretive, interpersonal, and presentational- to build proficiency in using the Chinese language in real-life situations. Integrated Chinese develops language abilities while encouraging active use of the language within and beyond the classroom. Task-based questions and learning objectives are included in every lesson to help students take control of developing language proficiency and problem-solving skills. The Integrated Chinese series is a two-year course that includes textbooks, workbooks, character workbooks, audio recording, multimedia resources, and teacher resources. Student are available in both simplified and traditional character versions.
