Title: Article: Ohio State Council Suggests Changes to Instruction
Body: From http://www.mountvernonnews.com/local/08/02/05/edu.language.html State council suggests changes to instruction By Pamela Schehl Tuesday, February 05, 2008 The Ohio Legislature recently received a report from the Foreign Language Advisory Council concerning world language education in Ohio. Part of the discussion dealt with the way foreign languages are taught in most Ohio high schools, and the advisory council suggested some changes. One common problem with foreign language instruction, the council determined, is the frequent repetition and review of previously learned material rather than advancing the students to more challenging material. Another drawback, in the council’s view, is the emphasis on memorizing grammar rules and vocabulary lists rather than on learning to truly communicate in the language. Learning a language should not be about what one knows about the language, the report stated, but should be about what one can do with the language.
