Hiyaku provides content-based instruction, with authentic and semi-authentic dialogues and readings, all carefully selected to instruct and inspire students as they learn Japanese. Key features of the textbook include: -highly structured chapters, beginning with warm-up exercises followed by focused practice of each of the four skills -gradual introduction to increasingly authentic materials -content taken from original Japanese sources such as books, TV programs, magazines, newspapers and websites -extensive audio material provided as free MP3 files on a companion website -instructor's materials, including PowerPoint files provided through the companion website: http://www.routledge.com/cw/eguchi/ Hiyaku does not simply teach language and basic cultural points: it also helps students gain a holistic understanding of Japanese society and history, and provides the necessary foundation for the advanced study of Japan and its language.
