- Title
A New College Language Course for Beginners.
- Authors
Scherer, George A.C.
- Abstract
The speed at which a student acquires an active knowledge of a foreign language is determined largely by the number of weekly contact hours. Accordingly, the usual two-year course could be condensed into an effective one-year course at a great saving of total student learning hours, without increasing instructional costs excessively. This plan would make it possible for two-year language students to take relatively advanced work in the second year. Majors would gain an extra college year for advanced studies in their field.
