Summary

Wie geht's? is an Introductory German program that has proven itself to be the one of the leading German programs in the country. Over 250,000 students have learned German with Wie geht's? and it's no surprise why teachers adopt this program -- plainly put by its users, IT WORKS!! This new edition boasts a host of new program components: the new text-specific Wie geht's video; a new text-specific Wie geht's? Multimedia CD-ROM; the all new Wie geht's? World Wide Web Site; the new text-specific Wie geht's Dasher Tutorial Software.

The goal is simple with Wie geht's. It presents a well-integrated package of material that focuses on speaking, listening, reading, writing, and comprehension, combined with an introduction to life and culture in German-speaking countries today. The approach is student-oriented and is manageable and up-to-date. Students will communicate in meaningful ways after only one year and will also be provided
