IMAGINA Supersite

Located at imagina.vhlcentral.com, the password-protected IMAGINA supersite makes it easy for students and instructors to access the expansive set of learning resources that accompany and enhance the textbook. A student passcode is included free of charge with the purchase of a new student text.

Organized to mirror the structure and flow of each lesson in the textbook, the online materials integrate engaging, interactive practice activities with rich audio and video content. For every section of every textbook lesson, students can find everything they need in one convenient place.

Among the resources available to students are the following:

• The complete IMAGINA Film Collection
• Activities to support and expand on the Sube el volumen sections in the student text, including the musician(s), their music, and the lyrics to featured songs
• Documentaries from the Imagina section
• Interactive practice activities with computer grading and real-time feedback
• Open-ended, yet supported activities in which students explore the Internet and report on what they learn
• Vocabulary and pronunciation practice with native-speaker audio examples
• MP3 files of the complete lab audio programs
• an electronic Spanish-English dictionary
• a electronic verb wheel
• a glossary of grammar terms

Instructor access includes a wealth of downloadable instructor resources and a student-performance tracking system, all in one convenient place. An instructor passcode is provided free of charge to every adopting instructor.

Among the resources available to instructors are the following:

• the complete Instructor's Resource Manual in PDFs
• the complete Testing Program in PDFs
• the complete Testing Program in RTF Word-Processing Files
• MP3 files of the Testing Audio Program
• Student Activities Manual Answer Key
• Complete IMAGINA Film Collection
• Documentaries presented in the Imagina section
• Additional content and selected songs from Sube el volumen

Instructors can access all of the student materials. They can also view the answers to all computer-graded student exercises.

The instructor view also includes tracking reports on student responses and grades. For computer-graded activities, student grades can be viewed in aggregate, with activity level statistics for correct/incorrect answers, or in a detailed view showing students' correct and incorrect responses. For open-ended activities, instructors can view their students' answers, formatted for easy online reading.

Finally, to support instructors using software such as WebCT or Blackboard, the supersite includes online integration tools. These tools create direct links to student activities and resources from an instructor's WebCT or Blackboard course and return student results to the course for tracking, where appropriate.
