About this ebook
This bestselling classic, now in a third edition, offers up-to-date guidance for transforming policies and practices to improve the education of emergent bilinguals.
In this updated edition, Ofelia García and Jo Anne Kleifgen are joined by Claudia Cervantes-Soon to bring forth a just vision for the education of language-minoritized students in the United States. The authors use accessible language to introduce policies, programs, research, and practices to equitably educate these students.
This widely used textbook has been expanded to explore the potential of translanguaging and the promises and pitfalls of Artificial Intelligence. It also addresses the harmful role that colonialism and raciolinguistic ideologies play, offering guidance for transforming policies and practices to improve the education of emergent bilinguals. Updated chapters provide the theoretical constructs, empirical evidence, and pedagogical practices related to the five most important aspects of the education of emergent bilinguals in K–12 classrooms: language and literacy considerations; curriculum and pedagogy; family and community engagement; assessment; and digital technologies and learning.
