OverviewThis volume proposes solutions to the gentrification of dual language, bilingual and immersion education by examining how it operates across diverse school and community contexts. It brings together studies in a number of areas including instruction, curriculum development, classroom interaction, school leadership, parent and community engagement, ideological discourse and language policy. Through academic and reader-friendly summaries of research, this book makes a strong theory-to-practice impact towards equitable integration in education programs and their surrounding neighborhoods. It draws attention to how understanding and responding to gentrification of language programs is part of the broader fight for racial and educational justice for immigrant communities in US schools, and offers practical recommendations with action steps for educators, families, school administrators, activists and other key stakeholders in language education. The four stakeholder resource chapters in Part 2 will be made Open Access to allow all teachers and administrators to benefit from the research, with freely available practical guidance on working towards equity in language education. We will link to the chapters here as soon as they are available. Full Product DetailsAuthor: M. Garrett Delavan , Juan A.
