While focusing on grammar, ic promotes the development ofall language skills in a variety of ways. It unctions principally asa classroom teaching text but also serves ab a comprehensive reference text for students. ‘The eclectic approach and abundant variety of exercise material remain the same ain the earlier editions, but each new edition incorporates new ways and means. In particular: + ‘The communicative aspects of Understanding and Using Englch Grammar are more fully developed and explicit in the thid edition. There are numerous “real communication” opporcunitis for the teacher to exploit. The text often uses the students’ own life experiences as context and regularly introduces topics of interest to stimulate the free expression of ides in structured as wel as open discussions. “The text supports the view of many experienced teachers that grammar-based and ‘communicative approaches are not mutually exclusive, but rather mutually supportive, and can advantageously co-exist in the same language program, even in ‘the same class even in the same lesson. ‘Similarly, the interactive aspects ofthe text receive greater emphasis in the third edition. Many of the exercises formerly designated ORAL oF ORAL. (BOOKS CLOSED) are now reformatted to be more clearly available for pair work or group work, in daition to still being viable as class work led by a teacher. This edition encourages interactivity but leaves it open forthe users to decide what degree of interactivity ‘est suits their needs. “There is now an even wider variety of exercise types. This edition has a larger number offree-response exercises and open-ended communicative task, while sil providing ample contolled-responte exercises to ai inital understanding of the form, meaning, and usage of the target structures. I also includes more writing topics, more speaking activites, expanded error analysis exercises, and additional cextended-context exercises + Long chapters have been broken into shorter units, and certain grammar units have been reorganized. ‘The bitd soaring upward and forward on the cover ofthis new edition i a swallow. Found throughout the world, swallows are joyful, playful, energetic birds whose comings ‘and goings announce changes inthe seasons. Like the butterfly on the second edition, the ‘swallow on this edition signals new beginnings-—as student, teacher, and text writer come together in our shared journey toward the leaning of a new language
