Paul Pimsleur spent his career researching and perfecting the precise elements anyone can use to learn a language quickly and easily. Here are a few of his "secrets":The Principle of AnticipationIn the nanosecond between a cue and your response, your brain has to work to come up with the right word. Having to do this boosts retention, and cements the word in your mind.Core VocabularyWords, phrases, and sentences are selected for their usefulness in everyday conversation. We don't overwhelm you with too much, but steadily increase your ability with every lesson.Graduated Interval RecallReminders of new words and structures come up at the exact interval for maximum retention and storage into your long-term memory.Organic LearningYou work on multiple aspects of the language simultaneously. We integrate grammar, vocabulary, rhythm, melody, and intonation into every lesson, which allows you to experience the language as a living, expressive form of human culture.Learning in ContextResearch has shown that learning new words in context dramatically accelerates your ability to remember. Every scene in every Pimsleur lesson is set inside a conversation between two people. There are no drills, and no memorization necessary for success.Active ParticipationThe Pimsleur Method + active learner participation = success. This method works with every language and every learner who follows it. You gain the power to recall and use what you know, and to add new words easily, exactly as you do in English.The Armenian (Western) LanguageArmenian (Western) is the dialePimsleur Armenian Pimsleur1434898AUDIO9910156409003321Pimsleur Armenian (Western) Level 1 : Learn to Speak and Understand Western Armenian with Pimsleur Language Programs3594972UNINA05287nam 2200577Ia 450 991096268220332120251117080614.01-136-47899-X0-203-13337-41-136-47900-710.4324/9780203133378 (MiAaPQ)EBC956941(Au-PeEL)EBL956941(CaPaEBR)ebr10542477(CaONFJC)MIL761112(OCoLC)798532633(OCoLC)860588901(OCoLC)782918253(FINmELB)ELB137249(CKB)2670000000162010(EXLCZ)99267000000016201020110811d2012 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierWaterfront regeneration experiences in city-building /edited by Harry Smith and Maria Soledad Garcia Ferrari1st ed.Abingdon, Oxon [England] ;New York, NY Earthscan2012Abingdon, Oxon [England] ;New York, NY :Earthscan,2012.1 online resource (xv, 236 p.) ill1-84407-673-3 Includes bibliographical references and index.Part 1: Context and Key Issues for Waterfront Regeneration; 1.

However, its multi-faceted nature entails city-building with all its complexity including the full range of organizations involved and how they interact. This book examines how more inclusive stakeholder involvement has been attempted in the nine cities that took part in the European Union funded Waterfront Communities Project. It focuses on analyzing the experience of creating new public realms through city-building activities. These public realms include negotiation arenas in which different discourses meet and are created - including those of planners, urban designers and architects, politicians, developers, landowners and community groups - as well as physical environments where the new city districts' public life can take place, drawing lessons for waterfront regeneration worldwide.The book opens with an introduction to waterfront regeneration and then provides a framework for analyzing and comparing waterfront redevelopments, which is followed by individual case study chapters highlighting specific topics and issues including land ownership and control, decision making in planning processes, the role of planners in public space planning, visions for waterfront living, citizen participation, design-based waterfront developments, a social approach to urban waterfront regeneration and successful place making. Significant findings include the difficulty of integrating long term 'sustainability' into plans and the realization that climate change adaptation needs to be explicitly integrated into regeneration planning. The transferable insights and ideas in this book are ideal for practising and student urban planners and designers working on developing plans for long-term sustainable waterfront regeneration anywhere in the world.Experiences in city-buildingWaterfrontsNorth Sea RegionCase studiesCommunication in city planningNorth Sea RegionCase studiesWaterfrontsCommunication in city planning711/.42Smith Harry(Harry C.)101834Garcia Ferrari Maria Soledad1872914MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910962682203321Waterfront regeneration4482764UNINA
