[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do people think of DCI? I notice that for the younger classes people really prize immersion schools. Why aren't people clamouring for DCI if they missed the immersion boat when they were younger? [/quote] DCI isn't immersion. Students can continue advanced foreign language studies and take one other class in their feeder school language. You can also start there at 6th without a foreign language background. I think many people ARE enthusiastic about DCI - but there have not been not very many slots available for non-feeder school students. [/quote] I know that it is not immersion (sorry if I wasn't clear), but the IB curriculum is very strong on languages and I definitely learned another language by the time I graduated. I am just surprised that people on here don't regard it as high as Latin which doesn't impress me in the slightest. [/quote]
