Throughout U.S. history, bilingual education has fallen in and out of favor. But today, due to an increasing number of emergent bilingual students, or English language learners, and a growing body of research demonstrating the individual and community benefits of bilingualism, more and more schools have begun to reframe their thinking regarding dual language learning.
In this edWebinar viewers will:
- Learn about the bilingual advantage—the benefits of learning more than one language
- Review the state of today’s dual language education programs
- Find out how bilingual education can strengthen communities
- Discuss how edtech can support bilingual education and make for stronger communities
This recorded edWebinar will be of interest to K-12 teachers and school and district leaders.
