This annotated bibliography on the teaching of modern foreign languages was prepared by the West German documentation center dealing with foreign language research, a center similar to the clearinghouses in the Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC). Most of the 230 entries appeared in 1971. The sections of the bibliography include: (1) an alphabetical listing of items, including full bibliographic citations and subject index terms; (2) abstracts of the items; and (3) a subject index developed from the descriptor terms assigned to each entry in the first section. A list of journals cited, an author index, and a listing of other bibliographies on the topic are included. For related documents see ED 044 956, ED 044 999, ED 047 591, ED 050 653, and ED 053 632.
