Preface
The American Language Course (ALC) is a comprehensive, multilevel language program
for teaching English for vocational and professional purposes. It is designed primarily
for intensive English language training in a classroom setting, but can easily be adapted
for slower-paced instruction. The ALC’s curriculum has been developed by the Defense
Language Institute English Language Center (DLIELC), which is a US Department of
Defense school under the operational control of the US Air Force. The primary focus of the
ALC is to provide a language curriculum for a diverse international military population. To
that end, the course includes not only general English topics, but also military topics of a
general nature highlighting the typical language military personnel will encounter in their
professional and vocational career fields. The ALC has, however, also been very successfully
used in non-military learning environments and in US high schools with immigrant student
populations.
Course components
The coordinated instructional packages for Books 1-30 consist of the following:
v Instructor text (IT)
>- Student text (ST)
>- Homework and evaluation exercises booklet (HW and EE)
> Audio recordings (tape or CD)
> Language laboratory activities text with audio scripts and answer key (LLAT)
>- Computer-delivered interactive multimedia instruction (IMI) for Levels I-IV
> Quiz kit
> Optional training aids
New in 2012
To better meet the needs of students and instructors, the previous student and instructor
language laboratory activities texts have been repackaged into a single book. Each of
these books provides all the elements of the previous student and instructor texts under
one cover: exercise and activity pages, audio scripts, and answer keys. The books are fully
coordinated with the audio recordings and provide ALC students the possibility of self­
directed learning.

Figure 4 Answer the questions.

June 5, 1988
Dear Jane:

I couldn’t go to your party last weekend because I had to work late on


Sunday. Usually, I’m finished at the store by 5:30, but last weekend I had a lot
of extra work. I couldn’t leave the store until 8 PM. By that time, I was very
tired and hungry. I tried to buy a sandwich, but I couldn’t find a sandwich
vending machine. Finally I stopped looking. I went home without supper.
After I got home and changed clothes, it was very late. I know you had a good
party. I’m sorry I didn’t go.

I won’t have to go to work on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. I can


go to a restaurant and a movie on Tuesday. Would you like to do that? Call me
on Monday.
Your friend,
Frank.

Am erican Language Course

The American Language Course is a comprehensive, multilevel program


for adults that teaches English for vocational and professional purposes.
The ALC is designed primarily for intensive English language training in
a classroom setting, but it can be adapted for slower-paced instruction. A
significant feature of the ALC is the inclusion of basic military topics and
vocabulary.
Using traditional methods of language teaching as well as contemporary
communicative approaches, the ALC’s presentation is systematic and
carefully sequenced to ensure that learners can build on previously
acquired knowledge. Photographs, illustrations, charts, and tables explain
vocabulary and grammar, while dialogs and student-centered activities
introduce and reinforce language functions and skills. Each book is
supplemented by an instructional package that includes the following:
• Instructor text
• Student text
• Language laboratory activities text with audio scripts and answer keys
• Audio recordings
• Computer-delivered interactive multimedia instruction (IMI)
• Quiz kit
• Optional training aids

The ALC’s second edition features a completely revised student text with
an accompanying instructor text. Instructor notes offer detailed guidelines
for presenting classroom exercises, supplemental activities, and pertinent
cultural information. A variety of teaching strategies are provided to keep
students motivated and enliven the classroom.
