Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can you explain in detail what has changed?
A: The amount of audio available to students has increased.
In the 1st Edition, the student CD included audio up to Track 94.
In the 2nd Edition, the audio extends up to Track 258. Tracks 95–258 are the newly added audio.
There are no changes to the vocabulary or chant lyrics on each page.
-
Tracks 95–168: Let’s Study audio for each STEP (Can be cued by STEP and item number)
-
Tracks 169–258: Listening test audio (Can be cued by STEP and item number)
Q: What happens if students using the 1st and 2nd Editions are in the same class? Will 1st Edition students be missing anything important?
A: The essential audio for homework listening is included in Tracks 1–94, so there will be no issues with listening assignments. (The student CD can still be used for this purpose.)
The newly added audio from Tracks 95–258 (Let’s Study and listening test audio) is only accessible to students with the 2nd Edition. However, since there are no changes or added pages in the textbook itself, no instructional content will be missing for 1st Edition students.
