Download or read book Academic Achievement in Bilingual and Immersion Education written by Elizabeth Rata and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-29 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about two innovative methods for teachers of bilingual students to use in improving their academic achievement. Transacquisition Pedagogy or TAP developed by Tauwehe Sophie Tamati is the method described in the book’s first part. It uses principles of flexible bilingualism and a task sequenced approach. The success of TAP in an intervention study in two of New Zealand’s Māori schools illustrates how cognitive and linguistic processes can be used to increase student conceptual understanding and to improve their academic biliteracy. Part two is about the Curriculum Design Coherence Model (CDC Model) created by Elizabeth Rata. It shows teachers how to design concepts, content and competencies to connect academic knowledge and thinking processes. The CDC Model has proved its success in the Knowledge-Rich School Project in New Zealand and England. TransAcquistion Pedagogy and the CDC Model are aligned. TAP works by putting the CDC design method into practice. The separate usefulness of TAP and the CDC Model and the added value of their alignment provides an innovative approach to education. Used together or separately they provide invaluable teaching methods for bilingual, immersion and mainstream education.
Download or read book A Commonsense Guide to Bilingual Education written by Judith Lessow-Hurley and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A discussion of bilingual education analyzes current issues, reviews related research, describes innovative and exemplary program formats for dual-language programming, and examines issues in bilingual education for both limited-English-proficient (LEP) students and monolingual native-English-speakers. The first chapter provides an overview of language policy, because language policy is part of the political environment within which bilingual education must be considered. Chapter 2 focuses on language proficiency assessment. The third and fourth chapters discuss program models and methods of instruction used in bilingual classrooms. The roles of teachers and paraprofessionals in bilingual classrooms is addressed in chapter 5. The subsequent chapter analyzes legal issues and clarifies requirements for serving LEP children. The final chapter answers questions frequently asked about bilingual education, including special language-learning situations, optimal age for second language learning, mainstreaming, raising a bilingual child, the rights of undocumented students, national official language policy in the United States, salient political issues, and the scope of bilingual education. A 62-item bibliography and addresses for obtaining additional resources and support are appended. (MSE)

Download or read book Dual Language Bilingual Education written by Kathryn I. Henderson and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the role of the teacher in dual language bilingual education (DLBE) implementation in a time of nationwide program expansion, in large part due to new and unprecedented top-down initiatives at state and district level. The book provides case studies of DLBE teachers who: (a) implemented the DLBE model with fidelity; (b) struggled to implement the DLBE model; and (c) adapted the DLBE model to meet the needs of their local classroom context. The book demonstrates the way teachers as language policymakers navigate and interpret district-wide DLBE implementation and the tensions that surface through this process. The research, conducted over four years using a variety of methods, highlights the challenges and opportunities faced by teachers implementing DLBE, and will be of interest to both teachers and administrators of DLBE programs as well as scholars working in bilingual education.

Download or read book Bilingual Education written by María Estela Brisk and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discourse on education of students who come to school with a language and cultural background other than English has been stuck on the issue of language choice. Arguments in favor of bilingual education stress the advantages of using the native language of the students. Those against list the benefits of English-only instruction. The political struggle to defend the existence of bilingual education in schools has also dissipated too much energy in the search of a "perfect" model. The recent history of bilingual education is replete with various models all posing as panaceas. Evaluation of programs based on models are unreliable because models do not teach and rarely learn. Overreliance on particular models often detracts from analyzing what actually happens in schools. Many concerned educators realize that in order to improve the education of bilingual students we need to go beyond the debate on language choice and support for particular models. Education of bilingual students is a complex enterprise impossible to address with simple formulas. It is not, however, an impossible quest. We can create good schools for bilingual students. There is abundant research and experience to prove it despite claims to the contrary. The pieces of the educational puzzle exist but they are scattered. The major pieces include the research on effective schools, language, and culture; the role of families; and the characteristics of the students themselves. This book not only synthesizes such research but also provides a personal testament to what the author has observed in classrooms, in consulting with schools, and in training teachers. The results are presented as specific conditions for creating quality schools, developing comprehensive bilingual and bicultural curricula, and using appropriate instructional practices. The book provides a multifaceted and flexible framework for implementation and evaluation of bilingual education. Rigor does not always require rigidity. The best educational practices originate from knowing students, their families, and communities. Rather than following a prescribed model, schools can work on discrete aspects of the program in order to create a successful whole for their particular community.
