Chinese in Action 2

This innovative DVD provides a lively study resource for intermediate students of Chinese, using real-world communication and familiar situations. Based on Jennifer Li-chia Liu's popular textbooks Connections I and II: A Cognitive Approach to Intermediate Chinese, this DVD can be used alongside the texts or as a stand-alone study tool. Live-action videos present dialogues on everyday themes and cross-cultural communication. The DVD format allows for great flexibility of use and individualized study, and the disc can be played on a DVD player or personal computer. This classroom-tested approach makes learning Chinese an interactive, cognitive process. Jennifer Li-chia Liu is Associate Professor of East Asian Languages and Cultures at Indiana University. She is co-author, with Margaret Mian Yan, of Interactions I and II: A Cognitive Approach to Beginning Chinese (IUP, 1998) and author of Connections I and II: A Cognitive Approach to Intermediate Chinese (IUP, 2004).
