Abstract

With the funds received, I traveled to Russia to collect data. I was there from January through June 1997, teaching English in a kindergarten. One child was videotaped each week for 25 minutes. These videos will be analyzed and results reported in an Honors thesis for Brigham Young University’s Honors Program to be completed by April 1998. A brief account of the history of the program, the methods used for teaching, and how research was conducted will be contained in this paper.
