商品簡介
Hornberger (education, U. of Pennsylvania) has coined the word "biliteracy" to represent the synthesis of findings from bilingualism and literacy. She presents 16 chapters, the majority penned by herself and current or past students, that explore issues of biliteracy in education, including such aspects as policy, curriculum, teacher and staff professional development, classroom interaction, student assessment, and program evaluation. All of the work is based on a theoretical framework developed by Hornberger, in which the development of biliteracy is depicted along intersecting first language-second language, receptive-productive, and oral-written language skills continua.
