The Cutting Edge Intermediate/Upper Intermediate Video gives
students a wealth of information
about aspects of mode life, providing them with a rich source of authentic, real-life material.
Based on the syllabus of the Cutting Edge Intermediate and Upper Intermediate students’ books, the language is graded accordingly through the six programmes. If you are using the Cutting Edge
course, each video unit is designed to be used once students reach the consolidation unit sections
in the corresponding students’ book.
The Video Workbook
The Cutting Edge Intermediate/Upper Intermediate Video Workbook helps students to understand the video through comprehension questions and exercises.
The units are divided into the following sections:
Preview prepares students for the video topic and includes the pre-teaching of vocabulary. To
help them with vocabulary, students are encouraged to use a good dictionary such as the
Longman Active Study Dictionary or the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English.
In view 1 accompanies the first viewing of the video all the way through and focuses on general
comprehension.
In view 2 divides the video into short sections and presents students with more detailed
comprehension questions. Students may need to watch the section more than once. After
students have answered the questions, they watch the relevant section again to check their
answers.
Review starts with an exercise based on the content of the video to see what information
students have retained. Review includes language practice and vocabulary sections for
reinforcement. Short texts extend aspects of information given on the video.
Your view sections after most In view 2 and at the end of Review encourage students to think
about what they have seen, and to connect it to their own experience and views.
