Abstract	The status of modern Greek in Australian society and education are detailed in this report. Chapters include discussion of these issues: the history of modern Greek in Australia (Greek immigration and settlement, public and private domains of use, language maintenance and shift, and language quality); the functions of modern Greek in Australia (tourism and trade, international relations, interpreting and translating, and modern Greek as a sequel to the tradition of Hellenic antiquity); state and territorial policies on modern Greek at all educational levels and in all school types (preschool, elementary, secondary, postsecondary, government, distance, private, Catholic and Greek Orthodox, and ethnic); instructional issues (curriculum, instructional materials, teaching methods, classroom language use, testing, elementary and secondary student characteristics, and student motivation); linguistic, academic, and educational objectives in the teaching of Greek; the status of language instruction in the Australian territories; and the role of Greek and Greek instruction in the global context (political, economic, and scientific). A list of individuals interviewed for the report and a language attitude questionnaire are appended. Contains 119 references. (MSE)
