JUNTOS provides everything you need to learn Spanish online, and a classroom manual full of activities and resources to support your progress. A five-step learning path -- Ready? Learn it! Practice it! Use it! Got it! -- makes it easy! JUNTOS is an introductory Spanish program based on the principle of backward design. Project-based assessment tasks -- specifically created to measure identified course competencies for each unit -- drive the classroom activities and online homework that prepare students to complete the assessment tasks successfully. These projects occur at the end of each two-chapter unit, providing a more holistic approach to proficiency assessment. Each unit has a clear learning path that guides students through both the online and face-to-face content. To achieve proficiency, students complete online work in preparation for class, participate in collaborative activities in class, and then complete project-based assessment tasks to demonstrate their skills and knowledge.
