Uncertainty in the Community Language Classroom: A Response to Michael Clyne.
Stuart-Smith, Jane
Current Issues in Language and Society, v4 n2 p159-61 1997
Response to an article on community languages in Australia supports the argument that community language speakers do not have an advantage over non-speakers in the community language classroom, but can be disadvantaged by differences between the language taught in the classroom and that spoken in homes. Examples are drawn from Punjabi instruction in the United Kingdom. (MSE)
