Foreign language standards and the contexts of communication
Once upon a time, there were four skills. But what did it mean to be a listener? A speaker? A reader? A writer? Skills in a vacuum are useful neither for describing how well one uses language nor for how to teach it effectively. As the Standards were developed, the task force made an effort to look at related disciplines and to investigate how their methods might inform the teaching of second languages. As the discipline of communication was stud…
State and Local Policy on the Study of World Languages
State policies that impinge upon the study of foreign languages have been largely the domain of educational agencies. These policies frequently respond to events with little thought to necessary supportive relationships. Thus we now see a spate of mandates for programs in elementary schools with no policy for the preparation of teachers for those grades. We see rationales built upon global competition and a response of two years of study for less…
Foreign Languages And International Studies In The Elementary School: A Program of Teacher Preparation
In response to a national emphasis on language proficiency and global awareness, many elementary schools are establishing language programs in which the foreign language is used to teach students content area material such as mathematics and science. There is currently a lack of training programs which prepare elementary teachers to utilize the language as a means for instruction in the content areas. This paper presents an innovative program whi…

Practical Implications of Recent Research in Reading
“... It was really a very nice appetizing bit of pischa they'd laid out on the tray — two or three lomticks of like hot roast beef with mashed kartoffel and vedge, then there was also ice‐cream and a nice hot chasha of chai. And there was even a cancer to smoke and a matchbox with one match in it.”
Reading Is Communication, Too
The communicative aspect of the reading skill resides in the ability to interpret culturally authentic messages in the foreign language environment, that is, to be functionally literate in the second language. A task‐analysis procedure is useful in three areas: identification of appropriate communicative materials, strategies effective for the decoding process, and evaluation techniques that capitalize on the communicative aspect of the situation…
Second Language Reading: Teaching Decoding Skills
The teaching of the reading skill has been neglected in foreign language methodology due to inadequate definition of the reading task. Many language activities that purport to deal with reading actually emphasize productive skill outcomes and fail to develop the decoding aspect of the reading process. The goal of the reader is to assign meaning to a printed message, and a delineation of the strategies and skills that enable him to solve that prob…
