Language and Literacy Development in Bilingual Settings: Challenges in Language and Literacy
Editat de Aydin Yucesan Durgunoglu, Claude Goldenbergen Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 dec 2010
Grounded in state-of-the-art research, this book explores how English language learners develop both the oral language and literacy skills necessary for school success. Chapters examine the cognitive bases of English acquisition, and how the process is different for children from alphabetic (such as Spanish) and nonalphabetic (such as Chinese) language backgrounds. The book addresses a key challenge facing educators and clinicians: identifying students whose poor English skills may indicate an underlying impairment, as opposed to still-developing language proficiency. Implications for diagnosis, intervention, and instruction are highlighted throughout.

Recenzii
"Language and literacy development are fascinating and complex areas of study in single-language learners; they are equally fascinating, and far more complex, in children learning two languages. Multiple social, psychological, cognitive, and linguistic factors interact to affect the learning outcomes of these children. This volume presents an impressive cross-section of current research and thinking that will be greatly appreciated by graduate students and researchers in a wide range of disciplines, including curriculum and instruction, bilingual education, psycholinguistics, and applied linguistics."--Kathryn Kohnert, PhD, Department of Speech-Language-Hearing Sciences, University of Minnesota
"A large and growing number of children enter school having learned a language other than English at home. This timely book provides a superb survey of what we know and what we need to know about the development of language and literacy in these children. Everyone who studies, teaches, assesses, or designs policies for dual-language learners needs the information in this book. It could serve as the centerpiece of a graduate seminar in psychology, education, communication sciences, or linguistics."--Erika Hoff, PhD, Department of Psychology, Florida Atlantic University
"This book provides a significant sampling of the research evidence presently available on the literacy skills of bilingual children. The book elevates our ongoing discussion of the development and assessment of the literacy skills of dual-language learners and addresses important, thought-provoking issues."--Aquiles Iglesias, PhD, Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, Temple University
