A Roller Coaster Ride in a Thunderstorm: Issues in Language Teacher Education.
Campbell, Anne
Babel: Australia, v29 n2 p4-7,42-43 Jul-Sep 1994
Focuses on the difficulties involved in keeping abreast of changes in Australian language policy and in attempting to guess the next trend in language teacher education. The number of publications indicates strong government support for the concept of language education, a support backed by millions of dollars allocated for this area. There is a wide gap between official policy and actual practice. (26 references) (Author/CK)
