Raise the Issues 3ed SB

Raise the Issues helps advanced students develop critical thinking skills as they gain insight into American Attitudes and values. It combines original broadcasts from NPR with authentic articles from publications such as The New York Times, The Atlantic Monthly, and the International Herald-Tribune to present differing viewpoints on contemporary topics. Each of the ten units provides stimulating content that integrates listening, reading, speaking and writing. As students clarify, interpret and evaluate ideas from the material, they improve their command of sophisticated vocabulary and complex structures.
