Go Dutch!
A Beginning Textbook for University Students by Marian de Vooght and André Lefevere
From the introduction:
It is our belief that language learning must be fun if it is to be effective.
We have, therefore, constructed this book around a parody of a Private Eye story. We have opted for this particular type of ironic text because it is both fun and functional. We adopted a narrative form to help students achieve comprehension on the level of the text, not just on the level of word and sentence. To further enhance comprehension on the textual level, students are asked to rewrite/retell parts of the narrative from the point of view of characters other than the hero, Jan Raap…
Listening comprehension is enhanced by means of a tape [now MP3], which contains pronunciation examples and the Survival Dutch conversations. Students can use the MP3 for homework and self-study. Students can also be asked to transcribe the MP3 and give alternative answers to the questions asked on it.
Go Dutch! is designed to take the anxiety out of language learning and to give the student a workable command of spoken and written Dutch in a school year.
