Author Description

Gente is the only truly task-based program that transports you, the learner, into an immersive environment. Learners interact with authentic language from the Hispanic world through a series of carefully-sequenced communicative activities culminating in a real-life task. “Tasks” are collaborative projects that integrate speaking, listening, reading and writing to complete them with the skills that are needed to communicate effectively in the real world! With Gente, you learn bydoing, communicate with a purpose and emerge as an independent learner with the confidence to speak Spanish in a spontaneous, natural way.This Books á la Carte Edition is an unbound, three-hole punched version of the textbook and provides you with the opportunity to personalize your book by incorporating your own notes and taking with you only the portion of the book you need - all at an affordable price. It comes packaged with a 6-month access code to MySpanishLab.
