This book features case studies that address dual language
bilingual education (DLBE) programs, which offer content
instruction in two languages to help youth develop fluent
bilingualism/biliteracy, high academic achievement, and
sociocultural competence. While increasingly popular, the DLBE
model is a framework that comes with unique hurdles and challenges.
Applying a pioneering critical consciousness approach, the volume
provides readers with narratives, awareness, and tools to support
culturally and linguistically diverse students and their families.
Organized around four major areas-policy, leadership, family and
community engagement, teaching and teacher learning-the volume's
case studies bring together stories from policymakers, educational
leaders, family and community members, and teachers. The case
studies spotlight examples in which power imbalances have been
identified and shifted through critically conscious actions and
offer insight into how to ensure all DLBE programs are nurturing,
empowering, multilingual environments for all students,
particularly racialized, immigrant, and transnational students.
Accessible and varied, the case studies address important topics
such as anti-Black racism, digital access, disability,
school-district relations, working with undocumented families, and
more. Each chapter includes a case narrative, teaching notes,
discussion questions, and/or teaching activities to support
stakeholders who wish to develop and enact equity in their DLBE
policies, classrooms, and professional development. A key resource
for supporting student needs and transformative inquiry in the
classroom, this book is ideal for graduate students, professors,
leaders, educators, and other stakeholders in bilingual education
and language education.
