Communication Skills in Immersion Programs.
Carey, Stephen T.; Cummins, James
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v30 n4 p270-83 Dec 1984
Cognitive, behavior, achievement, and English/French speaking skills were correlated with ratings of oral French ability for third-grade francophone and anglophone immersion students. Teacher ratings correlated with achievement and cooperativeness, but independent ratings didn't. Objective evaluation procedures should be developed to minimize the influence of such evaluations on students' attitudes. (DC)
