Synopsis :

For courses in Intermediate or 2nd year Russian.

Golosa is a two-volume, introductory Russian-language program that strikes a balance between communication and structure. It takes a contemporary approach to language learning by focusing on the development of competence in the four skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing), as well as the expansion of cultural knowledge. Golosa is designed to help students reach the ACTFL Intermediate Range in speaking and Intermediate High in reading and listening. Each section in the text revolves around a particular topic and follows the same format: introduction of basic vocabulary, listening to introductory conversations, short dialogues with exercises and role play practice, practice in strategies for listening and reading, grammar study with practice in both oral and written form, and written workbook exercises. With its robust audio and video program on the World Wide Web, Golosa provides comprehensive explanations of Russian grammar along with the practice students need to build accuracy.

Quatrième de couverture:

With its careful balance of communication and structure, GOLOSA has been the pathway to contemporary Russian for English-speaking students throughout the post-Soviet era. Students learning with GOLOSA work towards functional competence in all four skills while building a solid grammatical base. This foundation enables them to increase their proficiency through additional study.

The GOLOSA program consists of two texts (Book I and Book 2), two student workbooks, a Web-based audio and video program, and additional Web-based exercises. Each book offers realistic communicative activities (in listening, speaking, reading, and writing) that are designed for use in a learner-centered classroom. Students acquire personalized vocabulary to express individual needs and practice strategies that promote the balanced development of productive and receptive skills. The problem-solving approach in GOLOSA leads students to become independent, confident speakers of Russian.

The third edition of GOLOSA, Book 2, has been revised to recycle material presented in Book I and to expand language situations involving transportation and electronic communication. In addition, the third edition Web site www.prenhall.com/golosa features a complete video program with authentic interviews appropriate for the students' level of comprehension. The Web site also provides a regularly updated set of additional resources for teachers and students that further promotes independent, individualized work with the Russian language and realia. The entire audio program—about 20 hours of recordings—is available on the GOLOSA Web site as well as on CD.
