Abstract:
Discussions regarding foreign-language education indicate that the relevance of French as a language of study is not always evident and United States enrollments at the post-secondary level since 1968 show a general decline. In this article, changes in higher education and in French programs are discussed and ways in which instructors can meaningfully integrate the relevance of studying French into existing courses are explored.
