Reviews
"Language programs will find that the organization and resources of Panorama facilitate classroom instruction that is innovative and uniform, assuming a qualified instructor. From the viewpoint of adjunct faculty or part-time instructors, having instruction so well planned and instructional resources so readily available eases their task so that time and energy can be spent in the classroom and not split between planning and instruction. . . . [the author's] substantial work is a gift to our language teaching field."—American Council of Teachers of Russian Newsletter "Panorama is worth your consideration for its well-selected texts and superbly organized grammar coverage."—Slavic and East European Journal "Panorama addresses the critical intermediate level of language instruction, when students often choose to continue study, or not. The authors skillfully combine a strong proficiency orientation with the ACTFL World-Readiness Standards, creating engaging materials that are both content-based and student-centered. Such an approach effectively moves students toward advanced competence in Russian."—Tom Garza, associate professor of Slavic Studies, University of Texas-Austin "Panorama provides instructors and students of Russian with many strengths: unit modularity, allowing instructors flexibility in schedule and approach; a logical structure within each unit; clear, comprehensible explanations of grammar and structure; compelling reading and listening texts, most of which are from contemporary sources, including Ekho Moskvy and social media; relevant vocabulary, with reference to the Russian National Corpus, and excellent support for vocabulary acquisition and retention; activities that reflect a strong command of scholarship on foreign language pedagogy; and topics that are bound to inspire discussion."—Karen Evans-Romaine, University of Wisconsin-Madison |
