Peace Corps, Washington, DC. Information Collection and Exchange Div.
The guide is one section of a resource kit designed to assist Peace Corps language instruction coordinators in countries around the world in understanding the principles underlying second language learning and teaching and in organizing instructional programs. This section contains a collection of pictures that can be used as visual aids in language instruction; the picture bank is also available on an accompanying CD-ROM (not included here).

Subsequent sections contain drawings and cartoons organized by: competency/topic (personal introductions/meetings, accommodation/home/buildings, agriculture and village, animals and nature, clothing, communications, community/leisure time/sports, daily routines, family, food/shopping, health and safety/medical, literacy, miscellaneous, money, professional-office, school, time/weather, and travel/transportation); grammar-reference; people portrait pictures; text markers-check boxes, arrows; country-specific pictures; and the hypercard picture bank.
