Abstract

In 1969, Dr Marta Rado, a teacher of German from Melbourne undertook a world tour to investigate languages teaching and learning trends abroad. Rado's experiences were the subject of an article in the July 1969 edition of the Australian Federation of Modern Language Teachers Associations (AFMLTA) academic journal, Babel (Rado, 1969). Fifty years later, the author of this paper undertook a similar journey. This paper provides a contextual comparison of the pre- and prevailing conditions in Australia in 1969 and 2019, in a Sonata Form case study of the two periods and voices. It analyses common, similar and different 'themes' that arise in the two periods, and suggests ways forward and critical issues for teaching and learning languages in Australia.
