A Model for Self-Access Language Provision.
Pierce, Colin
Language Learning Journal, n11 p30-32 Mar 1995
Describes a learning system developed at Wirral Metropolitan College (UK) for self-access language provision, linked to a competence accreditation scheme. The competency-based approach is suited to languages because it offers a measure of built-in accountability. Flexible workshop provision is an effective means of delivering languages to a broad spectrum of learners. (two references) (CK)
