“…Moskowitz reported the results of a questionnaire study that asked "several thousand undergraduate and graduate students at Temple University" (p. 20), as well as an undisclosed number of administrators, to rate 36 teacher behaviors as to whether the behaviors described were practiced by outstanding teachers or by very poor teachers in the students' prior experience in FL classes. Saine (1979) addressed the issue of evaluating teaching in a university context.

The preparation of U.S. foreign language (FL) teachers has been a frequently discussed topic during the past century. As the oldest, continuously published American journal devoted to FL learning and teaching, the MLJ provides an overview of the many issues pertinent to FL teacher education that the profession has grappled with. This historical review traces discussions and developments in teacher preparation and certification since the MLJ 's inception in 1916. In three sections, each covering a quarter century of the Journal 's publications, the article describes the most relevant discussions and events that have helped shape FL teacher education in the United States. Although many efforts —and doubtlessly many advances —have been made to assure a supply of qualified FL teachers for the nation 's schools, many of the problems discussed more than 80 years ago still remain unsolved. The author hopes that a critical look at the past will help the profession to focus on those proposals that are finding emerging consensus and to prioritize those needs and activities that help effect meaningful change in improving the qualifications of FL teachers.
