《世界语言标准与学习目标
Seattle Schools aligns curriculum to the Washington State World Languages K-12 Learning Standards (2015), which are aligned with the national World-Readiness Standards for Learning Languages available for download on the ACTFL语言学习世界准备标准页面.
世界语文课程成果 by level were developed by a team of World Language teachers in Seattle working with a national consultant, Donna Clementi, in 2010. They were updated in August 2015 to match the revised World-Readiness Standards for Learning Languages and Washington’s revised World Language Learning Standards.
The targets for high school world language seat-time courses were set by the World Language teachers in 2010 based on the ACTFL熟练程度指引:
Levels
- 1级世界语言课程 低级新手到中级新手
- 2级世界语言课程 新手中级到新手高级
- 三级世界语言课程 新手高到中级低
- 四级世界语言课程 中低到中高
- 5级世界语言课程 中级、中级到高级
These proficiency targets may be used as a guide to assist schools in proper placement of students coming from middle school to high school after some years of language study K-8. For example, a student demonstrating overall Novice High proficiency in Spanish (the target for a 2级世界语言课程) could probably do well in a Level 3 course in high school.
