[quote=Anonymous]I hope that immersion programs are not just a fad, but my gut tells me it is. I'd love to see a study that tracks YY students to see if they are truly bilingual five years after graduation. I know that China is super important because they are such a financial and military power and they are heavily invested in the USA (buying our debt, etc.) but I honestly can't imagine it being all that useful to be bilingual in Chinese. More power to those families who commit to learning Chinese...I just have the suspicion that when all is said and done learning Chinese in 2012 will be looked back on they way that Japanese became a fad in the 1980s. Spanish immersion, I understand more...more useful on a day to day basis in the States. [/quote]
