Hello,
We are in the process of selecting a new Introductory German textbook.
In so doing, we want to pay attention to the technology associated with
the text.  I'm soliciting feedback regarding texts used in your
institution.  What do you have that you like?  What should I avoid?
I've discovered many texts have Web sites associated with them but
they're quite varied in quality (and the number of broken links).  I'd
love to use a book that has a decent interactive CD-ROM with it.
(Incidentally, if anyone out there uses Neue Horizonte, please explain
the difference between the Computer Study Modules and the Neue Horizonte
NOW! CD-ROM.  The explanations on the Web are insufficient.)  It would
probably be useful to know that our classes meet 3 times/week with an
additional 2 meetings/week for lab. (We eliminated Kontakte because it
didn't fit well into this structure).

If sufficient interest exists, I'll summarize the feedback and post back
to the group.

Vielen Dank!
