Academic Vocabulary Academic Words by Amy E Olsen

1-Academic Vocabulary Academic Words 4th Edition by Amy E Olsen
The goal of these activities is simple: to utilize individual learning styles in order to help students learn new words in a large number of contexts. Underlying the text’s strong visual appeal is the philosophy that an essential part of learning vocabulary is repeated exposure to a word.


 Academic Vocabulary provides eight exposures to each vocabulary word in the text plus more opportunities for exposure through the Collaborative Activities and games in the Instructor’s Manual. Academic Vocabulary is an ideal text for both classroom and self-study. The twenty main chapters follow a consistent format.



Academic Vocabulary supplements a reading text at the most advanced level and develops vocabulary for academic subjects through thematic readings, interactive exercises, and self-tests.
 
 
This visually appealing worktext introduces words in context and reinforces their meanings through self-tests, writing assignments, collaborative projects, and games. The chapters and exercises are “scaffolded” so that material presented in previous chapters is reinforced progressively as the student moves through the book.
 
 
The exercises in Academic Vocabulary stimulate different learning styles and encourage cross-referencing of the vocabulary words. Recognizing that today’s students are citizens of a visual culture, the fifth edition’s new “Word Visions” feature calls on students to apply their vocabulary skills in image-oriented contexts.
