Synopsis

The ˇDÍMELO TÚ!, Fifth Edition, program is a culturally rich, communication-based program designed to help students develop competency in Spanish by allowing them to interact among themselves and with their instructors on a daily basis. This dynamic approach challenges students to arrive at an understanding of the Spanish language and cultures by tapping into knowledge they already have and applying it to what they are learning. ˇDÍMELO TÚ! encourages students to use their own resources, thus putting full emphasis on the learner and assigning the role of facilitator to the instructor.

About this title

Review

"Integration of culture through various means (Noticiero cultural section, Youtube research, iTunes references). This is great!"

"DIMELO TU is an organized and interactive program; especially important is the fact that you [as the instructor] are the facilitator."

"We like the particular way that the package implements a 'communicative approach'. Specifically, we like the students studying the grammar on their own (the colored pages) and then coming to class prepared to put the theory into real-life practice, particularly in small-group activities."

"I will continue to use DAMELO TA because I really feel that the other textbooks don't pay attention to the differences amongst countries in a significant way and DAMELO TA is very comprehensive. I never feel that my beginner students will become culturally incompetent intermediate learners."

"I liked the organization and sequence of materials presented. I enjoyed very much the different exercises and how these were linked. The exercises were contextualized so I never felt lost as I went through the review of the text materials. I also enjoyed how dynamic the exercises were. Another aspect of the textbook that I considered an asset is the opportunity the text gives the instructor and the students to interact with realia from the web inside and outside the classroom."
