The original French in Action consisted of video (the 52 programs that were/are shown in the US on Public Television), a textbook, audio cassettes, and workbooks to be used in conjunction with the audio cassettes.
I only have personal knowledge of the videos and the textbook. Item 2 above is the textbook. This consists of a transcription of the dialogue found in the videos, plus study questions and extra material that helps explain the vocabulary found in the dialogues. Since you're in the US, you can access the video at the below address for free. Simply change the '01' to anything between 01 and 52 to watch the different episodes. mms://media.scctv.net/annenberg/French_In_Action_01.wmv I never used FIA as a beginner, only as a refresher course after twenty years of not using my French post-university. For this purpose, I found the video and the text more than sufficient for my needs. Good luck in your studies. 1 person has voted this message useful |
