Flax Golden Tales

Flax-Golden Tales [Shorter Edition] provides a delightful alternative to traditional English-teaching texts. The selection of reading materials and the instructional activities, commentaries, short essays, audio cassettes, and appendixes which accompany them.

 

Between the two of them, Drs. Lohani and Nissani have published in, studied, and taught English and genetics, media studies and astronomy, psychology and philosophy, linguistics and mathematics, American literature and history, ecology and history of science, science education and interdisciplinary studies. They thus bring unusually diverse backgrounds to language instruction. In particular, Flax-Golden Tales owes much to their experiences of teaching freshman composition, English as a foreign language and literature.
