This fully-revised edition builds on the task-based learning approach that has made Cutting Edge so popular. With fresh, new, integrated DVD material and digital components, learners can be confident of improving their language skills through a carefully balanced range of activities.
New features include World Culture lessons that encourage discussion of contemporary global issues and Language Live lessons that enable students to practise functional language and writing skills.
English Adventure makes learning English a magical, memorable experience, by using the familiar fantastic world of Disney characters that children know and love.
Q Skills for Success encourages students to think critically and succeed academically. Q’s question-centred approach provides a unique critical thinking framework for each unit. This develops key cognitive skills such as analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating—as well as developing the language skills essential for academic success. Learning outcomes are clearly stated at the start and end of the units, with competency self-evaluations and vocabulary check lists featuring the Academic Word List. This enables teachers to define learning outcomes effectively to accreditation bodies.
