This conversation text implements a dynamic, learner-centered approach that encourages students to use Spanish to resolve meaningful and emotionally charged conflicts. A carefully crafted pedagogical apparatus featuring Conversaciones creadoras mini-dramas, written by renowned Spanish novelist Carmen Martín Gaite, challenges students to become active participants in the learning process.Integration of grammar promotes resourceful use of language by presenting new Enlace gramatical review sections, correlated to the creative conversations in each chapter, which highlight and practice a grammar point.More listening practice now features listening icons highlighted in the text, which refer students to the in-text Audio CDs to support pronunciation, reinforce speech patterns and promote cultural and linguistic awareness through unscripted interviews with native speakers.Interactive task-based practice for pair and small-group work fosters creative expression.Practical approach to building active vocabulary encourages students to create personal lexicons and to broaden their vocabulary base by using optional words and expressions to complete chapter assignments.
