French in Action Newsletter, n1-5 1991-93
The five issues of this newsletter, which focuses on a set of video-based, commercially-produced French second language instructional materials, contain articles on a variety of topics. The instructional materials in question, "French in Action," consist of a videotape component (52 episodes), an audiotape component, workbook, study guide, and textbook. Among the topics discussed are: curriculum development using the materials; personal narratives of classroom applications; ideas for general application in teacher education and testing; hints concerning the use of specific episodes; making the transition from a different set of instructional materials; a modification of the course used with deaf college students; use in distance education; selection of the curriculum for New Zealand's educational television network; professional news and announcements; and letters.
