Abstract
Este artículo analiza el trabajo del Instituto de Inglés (1943-1949) de la Universidad de Puerto Rico, Río Piedras, bajo la dirección de Lewis C. Richardson. Después de discutir la historia de la enseñanza del inglés en Puerto Rico de 1898 a 1949, describe la incepción del Instituto de Inglés, sus dirigentes y agentes principales, así como sus objetivos. Escudriña la estructura del proyecto piloto para la enseñanza del inglés en los grados 1-4, los materiales producidos y el progreso logrado por los estudiantes. Finalmente, aclara por qué el programa fue abandonado por el Departamento de Educación y considera las implicaciones de esta decisión.
