teachers going over to Comprehensible Input models (primarily TPRS) of teachng 
have grown to a flood. I will watch this video, esp since I speak Russian, but I 
realize many members of this list live in Europe and may be unaware of 
developments in the U.S. or skeptical about them. In my last year of teaching 
now, I see every one of my colleagues (FR, SP, LT) teaching pure grammar and 
producing mutes. What the admins are getting to replace them (at least 2 besides 
me) will be younger people who at least know about CI methods. The only fly in 
the ointment is that general tests of fl and expectations of college profs have 
not kept up; they are still looking for students who laboriously translate into 
English before they can “read” and also expect only people of the highest IQ to 
be able to learn a fl. But the professoriate is changing, too.</span></div>
