Book Foreign Language Education in America

Download or read book Foreign Language Education in America written by Steven Berbeco and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreign language teaching in America today falls into three distinct fields of influence and interest: public and private schools, college and other post-secondary programs, and courses for adult learners. At a time when academics and instructors in each of these fields seek to answer similar questions, too few published resources recognize and address the parallels among them. In response, Foreign Language Education in America is an edited book with contributions that represent the diversity in foreign language education today, including perspectives from elementary, middle schools, high schools, university-level courses, summer programs, federal government, and international learning. This is a practical guide to the state of the field that fills a much-needed gap for scholars, researchers, administrators, and practitioners who are looking for a resource that describes effective practices across the field.

Are admissions requirements dictating your family's lives? Are you concerned about your child's job prospects after graduation? If any of these questions resonate with you, it's time to consider college in Europe. As a mother confronted by these issues, Jennifer Viemont took it upon herself to meticulously research, personally visit, and carefully consider the alternatives in continental Europe. She found over 300 accredited universities offering high-quality bachelor's degree programs taught entirely in English--no foreign language skills needed--for a fraction of what American schools charge.You'll be amazed to find that, in many cases, the cost of earning an entire bachelor's degree (including travel costs) is less than just one year of tuition at an American university. College Beyond the States details the top 13 European schools that offer: Reasonable tuition fees well below any US option Transparent and attainable admissions criteria An exceptional international student environment Informative, empowering, and hopeful, College Beyond the States is an invaluable resource for both parents and students alike, and offers an appealing way to opt out of a system that no longer works for most families.
