What It's All About: A Foreign Language Supervisor's Report.
Benardo, Leo
This report by a former President of the American Council of Teachers of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) and Director of Foreign Languages Instruction in New York City Schools, concerns itself with five major areas. They include: (1) foreign language teacher and administrator relations, (2) a proposal for regional support teams, (3) the development of new courses, (4) interdisciplinary curriculum design, and (5) effective supervision and improvement of instruction. The article underscores the fact that assumptions generally held by educators in the last decade must be abandoned if language instruction is to survive in the coming years. (RL)
