    Abstract:
    The rationale for content-based instruction is that the content is often academic subject matter (Brinton, Snow, & Wesche 2003). Academic Encounters Listening and Speaking: Human Behavior is a contentbased textbook dealing with the topic of human behavior related to psychology and communication. The book contains four units: Health, development through life, nonverbal messages and interpersonal relationships. There are two chapters in each unit. The content of each chapter consists most of interviews, lectures and surveys. The interviews and academic lectures are semi-authentic materials from real college classrooms. The DVD that accompanies the text contains all the lectures from the textbook. In each chapter, students are asked to develop four skills: listening, speaking, vocabulary, and note taking.
