Description
This course introduces students to the field of bilingual education through the examination of its socio-cultural, historical, political, and philosophical aspects. Students use the research in the field to examine programs, models, and trends in bilingual education and critically analyze their socio-cultural and political underpinnings. In addition, the course introduces students to theories and research on bilingualism and bilingual development and how these theories inform bilingual programming, instruction, and assessment. This course partially satisfies the NYSED-mandated Bilingual Extension field experience.
