Streetwise brochure (.pdf)

Streetwise is a product that complements Vox Pop. It is built around the same interview material, but the exercises are new and designed for self-access use. In the program, each interview has a similar series of exercises built around it; this will direct the student to work actively with authentic language. The structure of each exercise is always the same and, thereby, both the student and the teacher can tell immediately what they must do.

Each interview is examined in five parts. These parts are accessed from the group screen. In each group screen, there is a menu with six people and, in conjunction with each person, five exercises.
