A su salud

¡ su salud! (meaning "To Your Health") is a Spanish language program for students and practicing health professionals, integrating language development, health content and cultural awareness. A su salud integrates language development, health content, and cultural awareness focusing on the Spanish and culture of recently-arrived Latino immigrants. The centerpiece of A su salud is 100 minute, broadcast-quality dramatic movie. Video is also used in interactive exercises throughout the course that are programmed to link to relevant web tools and resources.

The A su salud program is delivered via a 1 CD-ROM/2 DVD-ROM set, the web and a print workbook. By taking advantage of the combined capabilities of these delivery methods, the program can be adapted to the specific needs of students, institutions and organizations. A su salud! accommodates students with different learning styles and communication needs and provides students with a dynamic mix of "face-to-face" interaction, self-paced study, and exercises for practice.

This project included:
- Feature length dramatic movie shot in 23 days on location in two states
- DVD-ROM based student activities
- Sample CD-ROM for marketing to instructors and distance learning students
- 25 speaking roles, representing 7 nationalities, cast in three countries
