520			_aThis text is a demonstration of creative adoption or rewriting of the basic Kannada material based on a deeper analysis of the language to the specific needs of groups of learners following a new technique of presentation known as the Micro-wave Technique. This book is the outcome of the author's long association with the American Peace Corps in training the volunteers and in the preparation of teaching materials. This is intended to serve as a guide both for the teacher and the learner. It is meant to help the non-Kannada speaker to grasp not only the structure of the language and use it as a tool of communication on matters of day-to-day requirement but also to know the cultural peculiarities of the Kannada speaking people. It also renders guidance in learning the writing system. The entire content of this book can be used in an intensive course of two months in a general education programme. This can form a text book for a course of one academic year of two semesters.
