NOTE: This edition features the same content as the traditional text in a convenient, three-hole-punched, loose-leaf version. Books a la Carte also offer a great value–this format costs significantly less than a new textbook.
An exciting new design. The newly designed ¡Arriba!, 7th edition, gives students and instructors a more modern, clean, and user-friendly experience.
Vibrant new chapter openers. Each chapter opens up with Learning Objectives, a fine art image, and a Club cultura video shot on location in the region of focus. Students can explore online details of the art piece and reflect on how the images relate to cultural products, practices, and perspectives.
Improved Logical sequence of activities. Activities in both Vocabulario and Estructuras move consistently from meaningful, form-focused reception to communicative self-expression.
Simplified, easy to implement info-gap activities. !Necesito información! activities have straightforward directions that quickly get students on task to problem-solve or role play situations related to the chapter cultural and thematic focus.
Improved vocabulary presentations. Based on thoughtful feedback from instructors, the revised Vocabulario sections purposely integrate and highlight key vocabulary into the introductory contextualized dialogues. In addition, the revised Vocabulario lists provide a more cohesive presentation of high-frequency expressions.
Revised grammar presentations. While keeping the same thoroughness, the streamlined and visually appealing grammar explanations in Estructuras help students grasp concepts more easily as they study on their own.
New self-assessment in presentations. !Comprendes!,a quick self-check activity in each vocabulary and grammar presentation, helps students confirm that they are ready to move forward with more complex and communicative activities, or that they should review the presentation again. !Recuerdas! activities, placed before appropriate grammar presentations, help students connect previous knowledge to what they are about to learn.
