Jolene Gregory – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The recent theoretical debate over the role of translanguaging in dual language programs can be described as moving from prohibition to promotion.

Teachers'…

Licata, Gabriella – L2 Journal, 2021
Appropriateness-based models of language learning and teaching are rooted in a pervasive neocolonial agenda informed by Eurocentric epistemologies of "standard" or "academic" language (Flores & Rosa, 2015). In examining the normalized limitations of a language program through a raciolinguistic lens, we can better comprehend…

Carreira, Maria M.; Rodriguez, Rey M. – Heritage Language Journal, 2011
An extensive body of research documents the successes of immigrant groups in establishing community language schools. Studied within this tradition, Latino immigrant communities appear to come up short, because of the scarcity of such schools for Spanish-speaking children. However, as we show in this paper, Latino immigrant communities do have…

Lyon, Edward G. – Science Education, 2013
Although studies have documented teachers' growth in assessing science resulting from professional development or science methods courses, little attention has been given to growth while being prepared to assess a linguistically diverse student population. In this study, the growth of 11 secondary science preservice teachers is documented by…

Building upon the notions of speech community (Duranti, 1994; Gumperz, 1968; Morgan, 2004), linguistic community…

Collier, Shartriya; Auerbach, Susan – Multicultural Education, 2011
The social nature of language learning and development has been widely acknowledged, as has the importance of family relationships in language learning processes.

Hoffman, Diane M. – Anthropology and Education Quarterly, 1989
The relationship between language use and second culture acquisition is examined in this study of first generation Iranian immigrants and exiles in the United States. The use of both Farsi and English is found to be instrumental in the process by which American culture is incorporated within the Iranian worldview. (AF)

Ramos, Francisco – Bilingual Research Journal, 2005
Five Spanish teachers working in California elementary schools participated in this project.
