Course Description
This course focuses on the sociopolitical and historical contexts of education for ML students. Beginning with patterns of human migration and recent demographic shifts nationally, internationally, and in North Carolina, we review how and why multiple languages are used in school and classroom settings. We examine types of educational programs, including various types of bilingual education (dual language immersion [one way-, two way-], developmental, transitional) and the policies and practices that improve learning and well-being for multilingual students.
