The philosophy underlying interchange is that learning a second or foreign language is more meaningful and effective when the language is used for real communication instead of being studied as an end in itself. The Interchange Video Program brings this philosophy to life by providing a variety of entertaining and instructive live-action juences (“videos”) along with a wealth ivities that reinforce and extend the content of the videos. The program serves as an exciting vehicle for introducing and practicing useful conversational language for everyday situations. The interchange Video Program is designed to complement the Student's Books. Each video provides further practice related to the topics, language, and vocabulary introduced in the corresponding unit of the Student's Book. @ VIDEO IN THE CLASSROOM The use of video in the classroom can be an exciting and effective way to teach and learn. As a medium, video both motivates and entertains students. The Interchange Video Program is a unique resource that does the following: * Depicts dynamic, natural contexts for language use, * Uses engaging story lines to present authentic language as well as cultural information about speakers of English. ‘* Enables leamers to use visual information to enhance comprehension. ‘Focuses on the important cultural dimension of leaming a language by actually showing how speakers of the language live and behave. * Allows learners to observe the gestures, facial expressions, and other aspects of body language that accompany speech. Learners can expand their cultural awareness, develop skills and strategies for communicating effectively, and learn to use language creatively. 1 PROGRAM LENGTH There are sixteen videos in each level of the Interchange Video Program, one video for every Student's Book unit. For the Intro level, they vary vi htly in length, but in general, each video is two to three minutes long. The accompanying material in the Video Resource Book is designed for maximum flexibility and provides 45 to 90 minutes of classroom activity. lm PROGRAM COMPONENTS Video The sixteen videos in each level's video program complement Units 1 through 16 of the corresponding Student’s Book. For the Intro level, there are nine dramatized stories and seven documentary-style sequences. Although linked to the topic of the corresponding Student's Book unit, the videos present new situations and introduce characters who do not appear in the text. The language used in the videos reflects the structures and vocabulary presented in the Student's Book, while alco illustrating haw language is used by English speakers in a variety of situations. Video Resource Book ‘The Video Resource Book contains photocopiable worksheets for students, detailed teaching notes with worksheet answer keys, and complete video transcripts. The worksheets and teaching notes correspond to each video in the program and are organized into four sections: Preview, Watch the video, Follow-up, and Language close-up. '@ GUIDELINES FOR TEACHING THE INTERCHANGE VIDEO PROGRAM ‘The interchange Video Program provides a multi- skills language learning experience in which each element builds on and supports the others. ‘The Preview activities build on each other to provide students with relevant background information and key vocabulary that will assist them in better understanding the video. The carefully sequenced Watch the video activities first help students focus on gist and then guide them in identifying important details and language. These tasks also prepare them for Follow-up speaking activities, which encourage students to extend and personalize information by voicing their opinions or carrying out communicative tasks. Then students finish with the Language close-up, examining and practicing the particular language structures and functions presented in the video. ll HOWTOTEACH ATYPICAL VIDEO SEQUENCE ‘The unit-by-unit teaching notes in the Video Resource Book give detailed suggestions for teaching each unit. In addition to these comprehensive notes, here is a set of procedures that can be used to teach any of the units of the Interchange Video Program. First, introduce the topic of the unit by asking questions and eliciting information from the students related to the theme of the unit. Explain what they will study (e.g., main topics, functions, and structures) and give students an indication of what they will see in the video. Present the activities and tasks using the following guidelines: Preview Vocabulary These activities introduce and practice the essential vocabulary of the videos through a variety of interesting tasks. # Introduce and model the pronunciation of the words in the activity. ‘¢ Have students complete the task in pairs or individually. «Have students compare answers with a partner or around the class. ‘Check students’ answers.” * Encourage students to supply additional related vocabulary items where appropriate. Guess the facts/What do you see?

These schema- building activities improve students’ comprehension when they watch the full video with sound. © Ask students to guess what the video is about by thinking about the topic of the unit and looking at the photos.
