Note: This is a standalone book.CIAO! continues to set the standard for interactive, flexible introductory Italian instruction with its state-of-the-art online technology package. Not only is this course entirely portable to accommodate the demands of a busy life, it features exciting new capabilities that allow students to share links, photos, and videos and to comment on those posted by their fellow classmates. The eighth edition is distinguished by several new resources and updates that promote the acquisition of Italian language and culture in accordance with the National Standards for Foreign Language Education. Communicative goals are established at the start of each chapter to provide students with clearly defined objectives as they work through the content, while skill-building strategies and interactive activities help them achieve those goals. The all-new "Regioni d'Italia" section establishes a thematic thread that is maintained throughout the chapter and provides plenty of opportunities to make cross-cultural comparisons even within the regions of Italy itself. CIAO!'S fully-updated authentic readings, cultural snapshots, videos, and activities engage students in deeper exploration of the vibrant life of modern-day Italy and the country's rich cultural heritage. Each chapter ends with a thorough "Ripasso" to ensure student success. Now more than ever, CIAO! provides an all-in-one grammar and vocabulary program that allows students to communicate in Italian with confidence and gives them a unique cultural perspective on an ever-changing Italy.

Do not purchase this book the seller HEINLE CENGAGE Learning sells the book without sending the Book Key as a result I have to purchased a key separately and costed me $70.00. I tried to contact the seller to give me a book key but no avail.

the main feature of the book that i need is the book key so that i can access online learning modules and assignments. NOT AVAILABLE

I needed the online book key to access online assignments and it didn't come with one. I did not read anywhere that it would not have a code and since I bought it NEW I was under the impression that it would.

The loose leaf edition does not include a online access code. Again it does not include and online access code for the online work book. It has a very misleading description considering the fact that states the following, "flexible introductory Italian instruction with its state-of-the-art online technology package" (I copied-and-pasted this). To say I am disappointed is miniscule to how upset I am. After returning the first copy I was sent a new book and was promised the inclusion of an access code, however, I received yet another copy of the book with out a code.

Very unhappy I can't track my order and it's shipping very late. I needed it for class which has already started and doesn't come with an access code so I had to pay an extra $70 so I ended up wasting my money.

great for my class

As I expected.
