    Interesting footnote re: public awareness raising and logo trademarking

    The American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) highlights an extensive public awareness raising campaign vis-à-vis "the importance of learning languages and understanding cultures" (banner, ¶1), but may confound "all Americans" with a national populace (U.S.).

  • This was not a statistically controlled study: the subjects took a free test online and of their own accord.&nbsp;
  • But Philip Hult, the boss of EF, says that his sample shows results similar to a more scientifically controlled but smaller study by the British Council.
  • Several factors correlate with English ability.&nbsp; Wealthy countries do better overall. But smaller wealthy countries do better still: the larger the number of speakers of a country’s main language, the worse that country tends to be at English.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Export dependency is another correlate with English. Countries that export more are better at English (though it’s not clear which factor causes which).
  • Teaching plays a role, too. Starting young, while it seems a good idea, may not pay off: children between eight and 12 learn foreign languages faster than younger ones, so each class hour on English is better spent on a 10-year-old than on a six-year-old.

    R.L.G. (2011.04.05) suggests a large-scale study of an uncontrolled sample population "confirms ... stereotypes" (¶1), and "shows results similar to ... [an unspecified] study by the British Council" (¶3 [URL from original, retrieved 2011.04.14).
