This book introduces research-based pedagogical practices for
supporting and enhancing language development and use in
school-based immersion and dual language programs in which a
second, foreign, heritage, or indigenous language is used as the
medium of subject-matter instruction. Using counterbalanced
instruction as the volume's pedagogical framework, the authors map
out the specific pedagogical skill set and knowledge base that
teachers in immersion and dual language classrooms need so their
students can engage with content taught through an additional
language while continuing to improve their proficiency in that
language. To illustrate key concepts and effective practices, the
authors draw on classroom-based research and include
teacher-created examples of classroom application. The following
topics are covered in detail: defining characteristics of immersion
and dual language programs and features of well-implemented
programs strategies to promote language and content integration in
curricular planning as well as classroom instruction and
performance assessment an instructional model to counterbalance
form-focused and content-based instruction scaffolding strategies
that support students' comprehension and production while ensuring
continued language development an approach to creating
cross-linguistic connections through biliteracy instruction a
self-assessment tool for teachers to reflect on their pedagogical
growth Also applicable to content and language integrated learning
and other forms of content-based language teaching, this
comprehensive volume includes graphics to facilitate navigation and
provides Resources for Readers and Application Activities at the
end of each chapter. The book will be a key resource for preservice
and in-service teachers, administrators, and teacher educators.
