This paper describes the Foreign Language Alternative Program (FLAP) of Bellevue Community College, in Washington state. The program is designed to provide students with alternative choices best fitted to their individual needs, and is thus individualized and equipped to deal with both academic and vocational programs. The first year of a given language course would be designed for students who had had a varying amount of foreign language training followed by several years of no experience, and would focus on listening comprehension, reading, writing, and speaking. The emphasis on the four skills could vary according to the student. The second year offers a choice between academic and vocational content, the basic objective being a complete review of grammar in three phases with emphasis on improvement of listening and reading skills. The paper includes career suggestions for either an academic or a vocational program, and indicates how the language course might vary to fit each career choice. The series of French courses is fully described, including the curriculum followed, the materials used, and evaluation procedures. In all courses it is intended that the student proceed at his own pace, with no minimum or maximum work required in a given time period. (CLK)
