The Second Language Component of Primary French Immersion Programs in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
Schauber, Holli; And Others
Bilingual Research Journal, v19 n3-4 p525-36 Sum-Fall 1995
Describes a long-standing Montreal bilingual program that completely immerses Anglophone students in a French academic context. Support from the target-language culture and environmental reinforcements contribute to students' academic success and steady program enrollment. Such immersion education has produced functionally bilingual Anglophone students but does little to further cross-cultural interaction between Anglophone and Francophone communities. (SV)
