[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With instantaneous translations software in the palms of children hands, world languages is one of the best examples of how universities and colleges have their heads in the sand regarding what this generation needs to be successful. [/quote] Obviously you don't regularly use translation software in a meaningful way.[/quote] Not really. Colleges are just looking for 3 years of a WL taken in HS. Only MCPS takes it to the extreme and offer WL classes as early as 6th grade. I respect the middle school principals that tell parents “don’t rush this because your kid has to do 3 years in HS anyway”. [/quote] WL is best learned young. First exposure in 6th grade is better than in 9th. Earlier than 6th would be better. [/quote]
