Using FLES History to Plan for the Present and Future.

Heining-Boynton, Audrey L.

Foreign Language Annals, v23 n6 p503-09 Dec 1990

The history of foreign languages in the elementary school (FLES) in the United States reveals six reasons, not commonly acknowledged, for declining enrollment in the 1950s and 1960s. A checklist for self-evaluation of new and existing programs based on those reasons is presented. (53 references) (Author/MSE)
