Excerpt from Report of the Committee of Twelve of the Modern Language Association of America
The circumstances attending the origin of the report which is here reprinted without change, the committee's mode of procedure and the difficulties that beset their path, are sufficiently explained in the first section of the report itself. It is part of a general movement started a few years ago by the National Educational Association; a movement looking toward a better and more uniform definition of requirements for admission to American colleges. No one familiar with the facts ever imagined that it would be pos sible, even if it were desirable, to establish uniform courses of study in all our secondary schools; but it was felt that great good would be accomplished if certain norms or units of instruction could be defined, certain general principles laid down, and a descriptive nomenclature recommended, which should have substantially the same meaning every where.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book underscores the significance of language instruction in education, arguing that teaching a modern language in schools offers several profound benefits. Firstly, it provides an introduction to the culture and literature of foreign nations. Secondly, it prepares students for intellectual pursuits that require proficiency in reading French or German, opening up a world of scholarly research. Thirdly, it lays the foundation for practical language skills that can prove useful in travel and business. Delving into the relative merits of ancient and modern language study, the author emphasizes the value of both, acknowledging the unique advantages of the latter in its accessibility and the immediacy of its practical benefits. The book also analyzes different teaching methods, considering the strengths and weaknesses of the grammar method, natural method, psychological method, phonetic method, and reading method. Ultimately, it advocates for a reading method that prioritizes the development of reading comprehension skills, highlighting its benefits for linguistic development, cognitive stimulation, and literary appreciation.
