520 _a"Learning Through Two Languages is a solid, comprehensive overview of second language immersion programs in Canada and the United States. Additional focus is given to bilingual education programs in the United States.
520 _aThis highly readable text presents the most complete and up-to-date review of immersion and bilingual education programs by integrating actual program data, research findings, theoretically-related discussions and educational implications. The chapters on bilingual education include a perceptive account of how socio-cultural factors influence the form and outcome of educational innovations. Discussion of the relationship between immersion education and bilingual education completes the picture on second language education in Canada and the United States.
520 _aSuitable for trained researchers and professional educators, Learning Through Two Languages provides a thorough synthesis of research findings. An important reference for administrators and evaluators in making program decisions, it also is appropriate for an undergraduate audience or graduate audience." (Book Cover)
