Magnan, S. S. (2006). Enjeux et defies de l'enseignement du français langue étrangère en France et aux Etats-Unis (Issues and challenges of teaching French as a Foreign Language in France and the United States). French Review, 80(2), (332-352).

This article, written in French, addresses issues and challenges facing French teachers of all levels at the beginning of the twenty-first century. In an examination of approaches to communicative language teaching, the author considers the length of curriculum, the emphasis on individual learning and authentic materials, the focus on cultural contexts and the diversity of language, criteria for assessment, and teacher professional development. The examination is done within the context of the National Standards as well as the ACTFL Guidelines and the Common European Framework. The basic arguments are also applicable to teachers of other languages.
