THE APPLICATION OF PROGRAMED INSTRUCTION TO FOREIGN LANGUAGE AND LITERACY TRAINING,

Abstract

A description is given of some self-instructional foreign language training programs developed for military usage. Examples are given showing how programed instruction techniques were applied to the pedagogical and linguistic principles underlying foreign language instruction in these programs. A brief overview of self-instructional foreign language training and some of the programed language materials available give an indication of the extent to which programed instruction has been and is being applied to foreign language training in the United States. The major problem in applying programed instruction techniques to literacy training is also briefly discussed. (Author)
