Abstract	This account of an international seminar on language instruction, attended by 33 representatives of member states in the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), describes proposed steps to improve: (1) curriculum, (2) methods, (3) textbooks, (4) teaching materials, and (5) general school activities. With the vision of a world community in mind, the seminar focused its attention on six main topics: (1) humanistic aspects of modern language teaching, (2) language instruction as the key to understanding other civilizations and peoples, (3) methodology, (4) audiovisual aids, (5) psychology of language teaching, including tests and measurements, and (6) teacher training. Also discussed are the background, preparation, composition, and organization of the seminar; special topics; and other reports and recommendations. Appendixes contain titles of selected documents used in the seminar and names of participants. (RL)
