	Capital Metro TPR Report - Chapter 3
		TPR found that excessive cellular telephone costs were common; one former employee with no field duties ran up a $1,200 cellular telephone bill in a single month, while in Austin and other cities and states.
		TPR found numerous instances in which Capital Metro accounting staff were attempting to reconcile travel and training records to determine amounts owed to and by the authority, months and sometimes up to two years later.
		TPR assumes that the cost to print a lower number of plain passes and month and year stickers would be less than the cost of purchasing dated passes which are then destroyed.

	LANGUAGE LEARNING article--Year 2000 Update for Total Physical Response, known around the world as TPR
		Research into the effectiveness of TPR in second language learning was supported by grants from The Office of Education, The Office of Naval Research, The Department of Defense, the State of California, and San Jose State University (the historic, first public university in California, founded in 1857).
		TPR provides that "level playing field." In a traditional class, adults endure the handicap of sitting in rows of chairs while an instructor performs and performs and performs.
		In a TPR class, the students perform and perform and perform while the instructor is the director of the play.

	What is TPR - Updated: bilingual education, ESL,Language Instruction,learn second language
		TPR is based on the premise that the human brain has a biological program for acquiring any natural language on earth - including the sign language of the deaf.
		TPR research opened up the concept that for children and adults acquiring another language in school, success can be assured if comprehension is developed before speaking.
		TPR is a powerful alternative to translation because we create experiences in the classroom that are "believable." If we ask students to be silent, listen to a direction and do exactly what the instructor does, we have created a "fact" which cannot be dismissed by the critical side of the student's brain.

	LANGUAGE LEARNING article--TPR: Still a Good Idea, by Stephen Krashen
		TPR students have outperformed comparison students convincingly in method comparison studies, both in those done by Asher and his associates as well as those done by other scholars (e.g.
		TPR is, however, a breakthrough of enormous importance; Asher was the first in second/foreign language pedagogy to recognize the primacy of comprehension in language development and his insight is applicable on many levels.
		While of obvious value for beginning language teaching, aspects of TPR can be used for more advanced students (teaching auto or computer repair, complex games), and now that it is free of the constraint of focussing each activity on a particular point of grammar, its use can be expanded.

		I have enjoyed using varieties of TPR for a long time, and if there is a weakness to be found it would have to be the difficulty involved in employing TPR for the purpose of teaching "abstract" language.

	Using TPR-Storytelling to Teach Indigenous Languages
		Popularized in the 1960s and 70s by James Asher (1977), TPR represented a revolutionary departure from the audiolingual practice of having students repeat the teacher's utterances from the very beginning of their first lesson and whenever new material was introduced later on.
		TPR is a continuous application of the "scaffolding" strategy (Vygotsky, 1986) with the teacher, and then the class, supporting the learning of a new word by demonstrating its meaning and then withdrawing assistance when it is no longer needed.
		Several Native American teachers and teacher-trainers have created TPR lessons to introduce their tribal language to the children who have not learned it at home, and these efforts are usually very successful; they allow the learners to indicate comprehension non-verbally, keeping the affective filter low.

	James J. Asher - Language By Command
		When working with beginning students, the TPR instructor starts with simple directions in a relationship that is like a caring parent interacting with an infant.
		After a number of TPR sessions, the students, just like young children, will spontaneously begin to speak the language, and this skill transfers easily into reading and writing.
		We have often found in TPR classes that students will request these things after a number of sessions, but this is quite different from the usual classroom where students attempt to perform these tasks on demand from the instructor.

	TPRStories - TPRS - TPR Storytelling - what is tprs?
		TPR Storytelling is a method for teaching foreign languages that was invented by Blaine Ray, a Spanish teacher in Bakersfield, California, in 1990.
		Although TPR has been the most effective method for acquiring a second language since it was invented in the 1960s, Blaine found that after hitting the "TPR wall," he was unsure of what to do to move from the imperative to the narrative and descriptive modes of speech.
		As TPRS was originally developed, the objective was to create a method that would prepare students for the College Board Advanced Placement Exam from level 1.

		The magic of TPR is that when the target language is internalized through body movements, students not only comprehend what you are saying but they comprehend what they see in print.
		As you work with classic TPR, you will discover that your students have instant understanding of everything you are saying in the target language.
		As one young instructor told me recently on the telephone, “I was an average teacher, but these techniques of TPR followed by storytelling made me an outstanding instructor because my students are achieving fluency---not just ten percent of the class who will achieve no matter what the instructional strategy is—but 95% percent.

	Methodologies in Foreign Language Teaching
		TPR may be used in conjunction with some other methods involving psychoneuro kinetic techniques wherein the teacher gives a host of commands with the students responding by “acting out” the command: “Stand up”, “Go to the door”, "Sit down", etc. Kinetic movement of the hands and arms is incorporated in lieu of rote memorization.
		TPR is very effective in teaching temporal states, personal pronouns, and other deep grammatical structures.
		An ineffective total immersion approach occurs when the teacher opens class by speaking rapidly at native speed as if the students were residing within the target culture, as if they were inputting the attempted language on an hourly, daily basis.

	Total Physical Response Storytelling:
		Popularized in the 60's and 70's by Dr. James Asher, TPR allows students to acquire vocabulary in a manner similar to how a child learns his or her first language.
		In a TPR lesson, teachers model actions which students then mimic as they simultaneously hear vocabulary words and commands in the target language.
		TPR Storytelling (TPR-S), developed in the 1980's and 90's by Blaine Ray of Bakersfield, California, provides the critical vehicle—storytelling—to utilize and expand acquired vocabulary by contextualizing it in high-interest stories which students can hear, see, act out, retell, revise and rewrite.
