How about adding a definition for immersion? I get the impression that there are varying ideas of how long immersion experiences should be, how much if any non-target language communication is allowed, whether there should be a certain amount of classroom work or certain amount of interaction with target language speakers, etc.


Using my "Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary":

- immersion in sth = the state of being completely involved in sth
- a two-week immersion course in French (= in which the student will hear and use only French)

CEFRL * Common European Framework of Reference for Languages
"Guideline used to describe achievements of learners of foreign languages across Europe and, increasingly, in other countries (for example the Philippines). It was put together by the Council of Europe as the main part of the
project "Language Learning for European Citizenship" between 1989 and 1996. Its main aim is to provide a method of learning, teaching and assessing which applies to all languages in Europe."

ELP * European Language Portfolio
"The European Language Portfolio (ELP) is a document in which those who are learning or have learned a language - whether at school or outside school - can record and reflect on their language learning and cultural
experiences."

What would be the third one we're missing out on?
