Title |
Teachers' Views of Immersion-Type Bilingual Programs: A Quebec Example
|
Abstract |
The authors examined the opinions of English-speaking and French-speaking teachers, circa 1970s, about the traditional program of English language instruction with French as a second language and a then-innovative program involving French immersion. Both French and English teachers agreed that the traditional program provided English children with a firm base in English — but not in French—language arts and in content subjects, and with a sensitivity to their own — but not to the other group's — cultural heritage. The French-speaking teachers generally viewed the immersion programs favorably; but the English-speaking teachers viewed them unfavorably.
