From the publisher

A Su Salud! is an interactive intermediate-level Spanish language program designed for students and practicing healthcare professionals. Learners work with vocabulary and grammar within the context of a telenovela called "La comunidad". The multimedia approach allows learners not only to absorb grammar and vocabulary but also to connect with other aspects of language learning that also carry meaning: where the conversation is taking place, who is speaking, the physical state of the speakers, the gestures that accompany the words, and the purpose of the exchange. The A Su Salud! package includes two DVDs, one CD-ROM, and the Cuaderno (Workbook). The DVDs contain the telenovela La Comunidad, along with accompanying interactive exercises. The CD-ROM provides software to make A Su Salud! interactiveand adaptable for online learning, self-study, a traditional classroom course or a distance-learning program. Major features of the program include:

• A 96-minute telenovela-style drama set in a healthcare center.

• Repaso sectionsin each unit for grammar and vocabulary review.
