This book examines one-way foreign language immersion education in
the United States. It provides a clear and rich description of a
Chinese (Mandarin) immersion program, its curriculum, instructional
materials, assessment activities, parental involvement and student
outcomes. The author analyses two studies that document the
development of the students' reading skills in English and Chinese,
and the progress of their vocabulary knowledge, lexical inference,
and reading comprehension in Chinese. In addition, this book
contextualizes the program in its eco-system, including its
neighbourhood, school, and the school district, and discusses the
importance of school leadership, parental involvement,
neighbourhood support and language acquisition planning in making
an innovative school program successful. Its concluding chapters
offer recommendations for program- and classroom-level practices
and suggest pathways for future research on biliteracy learning in
Chinese one-way immersion programs. This book will appeal in
particular to students and scholars of applied linguistics, second
language acquisition and language education.
