We provide evidence on whether the typical gifted program indeed benefits elementary students'…

The current study investigated the hypothesis that cognates (i.e., translation equivalents that overlap in form, e.g., "lemon" is "limón" in Spanish) facilitate language switches. Spanish-English bilinguals were cued to switch languages while repeatedly naming pictures with cognate versus noncognate names in separate…

The goal is to develop students' critical knowledge of the cultural, political, and social…

Gopalakrishnan, Anuradha – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2022

Yet language instruction, particularly in foreign language learning contexts, does not often capitalise on the multilingual assets of learners. The goal of this study is to understand what determines the…

Leibowitz, Brenda – Journal of Language, Identity, and Education, 2015
This article begins with a critique of dominant approaches to language policy in education that are based on the notion of "rights" and "peoples."
