The new approach includes fresh topics, new texts and visuals, a new design, as well as multimedia enhancement with a video-DVD for classroom and home use.The basic concept remains unchanged: systematic training of the four skills – speaking, listening, reading and writing – using topics which excite the learners’ interest and task formats which encourage the development of learner confidence and self-expression. The focus in the first two levels (A1, A2) is very much on listen-ing and speaking skills, while the B1 level introduces more activities covering reading and writing skills. In this new series, the skills set is enhanced by ‘viewing skills’ with the help of the video-DVD.At all levels, pair and group work continue to play a central role in the practice and development of communicative compe-tence while Perspectivas ¡Ya! provides learners with rich and varied impressions of the entire Spanish diaspora from Men-orca to Tierra del Fuego.

Perspectivas ¡Ya! includes: ■ 15 unidades, each introduced with lively

visuals and filled with texts, listening work, dialogues and exercises. Each unit con-tains, of course, an extensive ejericios sec-tion for use in the class and/or at home and a repaso section in which the unit material, in particular the grammar, is reviewed.

■ 4 opciónes following units 3, 6, 9 and 12. These optional extension sections provide new and authentic text formats such as songs, magazine articles and advertising fliers.

■ An introductory spread in which the learner is introduced to the rich variety of Spanish-speaking culture around the globe.
