Book The Training of Teachers of the Modern Foreign Languages

Download or read book The Training of Teachers of the Modern Foreign Languages written by Charles Maltador Purin and published by New York : The Macmillan Company. This book was released on 1929 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work is a part of an investigation into the teaching of the modern foreign languages which was begun in 1924 by a Committee organized under the sponsorship of the American Council on Education and working with funds supplied by the Carnegie Corporation of New York. From the first the Committee on Investigation recognized the fundamental importance which the training of secondary school teachers has for the present and future position of modern language studies in this country and took steps to sound out the situation as thoroughly as possible. The following pages contain the results of this inquiry. Even a hasty examination of Professor Purin's report will show that the foreign language teachers in this country, as a class, are poorly equipped both in the fundamentals of their subject and in the theory of teaching and the technique provided by practice under supervision. AU of these defects, as well as a lack of professional feeling, . teachers of the modern languages share with colleagues in other curriculum subjects, and all are to be explained in great measure by the recent history of our secondary school system. The deficiencies in the training of modern language teachers, resulting in a lack of fundamental skills and capacities, appear in glaring relief to every classroom visitor and are written plainly in the statistics contained in this report. Less than twenty-five per cent of the modern language teachers in the public secondary schools of the country have enjoyed opportunities beyond the college years, except such as were furnished by summer sessions. Only a little over thirty per cent of these teachers have ever visited a country where the language which they teach is spoken. Equally significant is the fact that one-third of them have not yet had three years of teaching experience and that thirty-six states in the Union still issue "blanket" certificates authorizing the holders to give instruction in any subject on the secondary school curriculum.

Book Training Foreign and Second Language Teachers

Download or read book Training Foreign and Second Language Teachers written by Carmen Avram and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-22 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comparative perspective on foreign language teacher training in France, Germany, Russia, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. The training process of state secondary school foreign language teachers is considered from two perspectives for each country. The current training routes through which necessary teaching qualifications are obtained are described with respect to national policy for foreign language learning, the nature of providers, and training programme organization and contents, with details of any practice. These descriptive dimensions are accompanied by an evaluation of the degree to which the training fits the purpose of teaching foreign languages in state secondary schools. The descriptive and evaluative approaches to FL teacher training provide a novel overview of the current successes and challenges in the field, giving an understanding of terrains not easily accessible to the general English-language readership. The book highlights elements of good practice found across nations, and contributes to shedding light on the enduring mystery of why certain nations seem to be managing multilingualism better than others. As such, it provides a reference for interdisciplinary discussions between applied linguists, education researchers and practitioners, and policymakers.
