The third edition of "Vis-à -vis" includes a fully integrated and revised multimedia package, as well as updated cultural information presented in the "Correspondance" feature (chapter-opening letter, postcard, or e-mail message that is answered in the mid-lesson "Correspondance" cultural pages) and in the new "Bienvenue dans le monde francophone" feature. The overall goal of the text is to promote a balanced four-skills approach to learning French through a wide variety of listening, speaking, reading, and writing activities, while introducing students to the richness and diversity of the Francophone world.

The second edition of Vis-à-vis continues the excitement of the innovative first edition with a fully integrated and revised multimedia package and an exciting Correspondance feature (chapter opening letter, postcard or e-mail, which is answered in the mid-lesson Correspondance cultural spread) presented throughout the text. The overall goal of the revision, which was shaped by the extensive user feedback, remains the same as that of the first edition: to promote a balanced four-skills approach to learning French through a wide variety of listening, speaking, reading, and writing activities, while introducing students to the richness and diversity of the Francophone world.
