The October 1 edition of the Philadelphia Inquirer (Section B1) reports on new strategies to "unlock" the mystery of what has always been a source of criticism in American education: namely, our inability as a school system to teach effectively foreign languages to the great mass of American students. The answer, according to the article, involves the Internet, websites of foreign places, and of course, teachers at all grade levels who know what they are doing.
Summarize the article AND relate it to either positive or negative experiences who have had in foreign language study. Do not be afraid to be critical of the article, including its support of computer aided instruction.
