Secondary French Immersion: A Study of Students Who Leave the Program.
Lewis, C.; Shapson, Stan M.
Canadian Modern Language Review, v45 n3 p539-48 Mar 1989
A study found that students, grades 8-11, leaving immersion programs were dissatisfied with the quality of instruction and the content and difficulty of immersion courses, and felt better grades would be obtained in the English program. A greater percentage of immersion students felt bilingual education would lead to better employment and education. (21 references) (Author/MSE)
