ICPE-28-1965_RES1-FR
1. The place given to the teaching of modern languages depends on the specific situation of each country; it is nevertheless recommended that the study of at least one foreign language is included in the curriculum of all grades in all types of secondary schools.

2. The choice of the first foreign language can generally be determined by cultural, geographical, ethnic, economic, or other considerations; when a second foreign language is taught, it would be desirable, whenever resources permit, that students have the option to choose among several languages based on their own int...

3. It is recommended that the study of a second foreign language should only begin once the fundamental linguistic structures of the first language have been acquired.

4. Since the study of foreign languages in secondary schools should not be limited to an elementary introduction, it is recommended that sufficient time be allocated to it in the weekly schedule.

5. The effectiveness of teaching a foreign language being primarily dependent on the interest shown by the students, it would be appropriate to stimulate this interest by granting, among other measures, a suitable place to the modern language examination in the various secondary education assessments.

6. In the context of the increasing specialization occurring at the beginning of the upper cycle of secondary schools, it is recommended to establish sections that include in-depth study of several foreign languages and award diplomas equivalent to those of other sections.

7. Given the ease with which young children acquire languages and the benefits this learning presents for the study of foreign languages in secondary schools, it would be appropriate to encourage initiatives aimed at enabling the teaching of a foreign language before the start of secondary education, while taking all n...

8. The objectives of teaching modern languages are both formative, educational, and practical; the intellectual education represented by learning a language must not come at the expense of the practical use of that language; similarly, practical applications should not hinder the thorough study of the language in its l...

9. The teaching of modern languages is not an end in itself; rather, through its cultural and human aspects, it must serve the development of the mind and character and contribute to a better international understanding and the establishment of peaceful and friendly cooperation among peoples.

10. It follows that alongside the oral and written study of the language itself, curricula must include not only literature but also objective information about the civilization of the countries where the language is spoken, while taking into account the intellectual capacities and interests of the students.

11. Official guidelines regarding the choice of methods, techniques, and textbooks should, while directing the work of teachers, allow them sufficient room for freedom and initiative, compatible with recognized valid methods, in order to progressively improve the methods and textbooks used in the teaching of modern lan...

12. The various active methods, which have long proven effective, appear to be the most suitable for acquiring a foreign language. New techniques for teaching modern languages, as well as programmed instruction, should be subject to study, research, and experimentation to ensure their appropriate and effective use.

What is above all important is that the learning of the spoken language precedes that of the written language and that a significant emphasis be placed, from the outset, on listening, pronunciation, and conversation exercises, making as little use as possible of the mother tongue or the language of instruction.

14. Nonetheless, grammar and syntax, as well as spelling, must not be neglected; efforts should be made to teach them in such a way that, far from being an end in themselves, they contribute to developing the correct use of the foreign language, both spoken and written.

15. The importance of research and experiments aimed at determining the most effective methods and modalities for teaching foreign languages within a given school system must not be underestimated; the specific characteristics of the environment and the students' mother tongue must be taken into account.
