Even If They're Tearing up the Street Where You Were Born, Don't Throw Out the Baby with the Wash.

Brown, James W.

This article comments on Gilbert A. Jarvis'"Teacher Education Goals: They're Tearing Up the Street Where I Was Born" in the December 1972 issue of "Foreign Language Annals." Remarks concerning teacher education, methods courses, teaching strategies, the audiolingual method of language instruction, and the Modern Language Association "Guidelines" for teacher preparation prepared in 1966 concentrate on areas of solid accomplishment in language program development while recognizing the changing attitudes towards language instruction in the 1970's.
