Active Listening Second Edition is a fully update and revised edition of the popular three-level listening series. Each level offers students 16 engaging, task-based units, each built around a topic, function, or grammatical theme.
Grounded in the theory that learners are more successful listeners when they activate their prior knowleged of a topic, the series gives students a frame or reference to make predictions about what they will hear.
Through a careful balance of activities, students learn to listen for main ideas, to listen for details, and to listen and make inferences.
