Preparation Course for the TOEFL iBT Exam is a communicative,

theme-based approach to learning the skills needed to take the

TOEFL Internet-based Test (iBT). Activities incorporate thorough
explanation and practice of the four skills tested on the TOEFL. This
multimedia program integrates the student book, audio CD, DVD,
and interactive website.
Within each thematic chapter, there is a selection of academic
topics from the four TOEFL-tested subject areas of Life Science,
Physical Science, Social Science and Arts. With this multidisciplinary approach, students sample the range of topics
addressed on the exam and yet feel a sense of cohesion in their
study. Skills introduced in each chapter are reinforced through
varied and engaging readings, audio recordings, and videos.
The academic-skills approach combined with high-interest, thematic
academic content allows for better retention of information and
makes for a better classroom text that keeps students interested. As
well, the approach to skill testing in the book is in-line with the
Educational Testing Service's (ETS) pedagogical approach to the
TOEFL, with a heavy focus on the Academic Word List.
