Student
In a self-accessed approach to formal language study, the language is self-taught. There is no "teacher" as that term is understood in other instructional contexts. It is central to the success of the program that students clearly understand what is expected of them in a SILP learning environment.
Executive Director Emeritus John B. Means and Virginia Marcus discuss the student's role.
