Textbooks

CeLCAR has produced working versions of introductory-level textbooks for Pashto, Tajiki, Turkmen, Uyghur, and Uzbek. The textbooks are based on the communicative approach to language learning and include authentic materials collected by CeLCAR developers on-site in Central Asia and Afghanistan.

Each textbook is accompanied by an Audio and Video CD and/or a supplementary Multimedia CD. These textbooks are currently being used in language classes at Indiana University, as well as other colleges across the country.
