Evaluation
This is an excellent textbook that aligns well with all core objectives, provides a variety of excellent scaffolding material, assessment material, audio, written, and more. If I were adopting a new textbook, this would be at the very top. The online materials are the best I've seen to date, and the integration is top notch.
