T- h- is pedagogy, Younes argues, is the most logical, effective and economical method of instruction as it prepares students fully for the realities of the Arabic diglossic situation.Younes takes teachers throug- h t- he following ground:Consideration of the current Arabic sociolinguistic situation and key debates in the fieldOutline of changing student goals and the needs of the modern AFL learnerOverview of the Integ- ratedApproach covering its rationale, features, implementation methods and usage of instructional materials in the classroomResponse to obje- ction- s to the Integrated Approach, outlining its advantages over alternative practices and clarifying crucial issues in practice. The Integrated Approach to Arabic Instruction addresses a pressing issue dee- ply rele- vant to the world of Arabic language instruction, placed in the practical context of shifting attitudes among students and educat- ors. It wi- ll be an essential resource for all teachers of Arabic as a Foreign Language."--
