Bilingual education models

The educational landscape is witnessing a shift towards more inclusive and dynamic models of bilingual education. These models emphasize the importance of incorporating multiple sources of content, such as articles, newspapers, and videos, to enhance learning experiences.

Bilingual education models

CARLOS ANDRE TOBAR PATIÑO.

late-exit

It ensures the acquisition of the second language, allowing a longer transitional period for the student to master L2 in a slow pace.

early-exit

It focus on the acquisition of enough knowledge of the second language like a near-native proficiency.


CULTURE

This means a connection to the real world, so students get to know content they will need as well as developing life skills.

COMMUNICATION

This means consciousness in the language to be used based on the context.


It´s advisable to consider the following:


Language for: This refers to the language for working with the content.


Language of: When we use the lexis needed in the lesson.

(for example: Topic ¨universe¨; some lexis that will be needed are: planet, sun, stars, galaxy, etc.)


Language through: The language that moves information.

COGNITION

This refers to let students use their critical thinking, therefore, guiding the student to learning to learn.

CONTENT

It refers to multi-modal approach, the content comes from multiple sources not only form the text.


Example: articles, newspapers, videos, etc.

TRANSLANGUAGING

This refers to communication merely, not on the language itself. So, the usage of multiple linguistic features are expected.


For instance:


No problem! vamos a encontrar a solution.

CODE-SWITCHING

This is when a learner mixes two languages in a sentence, a clear example of this:


DYNAMIC

It allows the usage or coexistence of different languages at the moment of communication, translanguaging is accepted since it tries to keep the development of multiple linguistic identities.

RECURSIVE

It focus on the revitalization of minority languages.


For instance, In some institutions teach a language which is in danger of extinction such as kechwa in Ecuador.

TRANSITIONAL

This programm is a transition for learners into an English-only environment in the classroom as soon as possible.

SUBMERSION

The processs of learning is given in its L2 while learners might make use of their L1 in a minority way. This is to make learners master the second language.

SUBTRACTIVE

Student L1 isn´t develop as their L2, which is the aim in the practices.


ADDITIVE

This is when the student´s L1 keeps developing while improving their L2.

IMMERSION

The student doesn´t lose proficiency in its L1 but is immersed in a monolingual environment to domain the dominant language or L2.


Some models of immersion are the following:

1) Early immersion: Given in Pre-school.

2) Delayed Immersion: Given in Primary or Elementary school.

3) Total immersion: The curriculum is explained through L2.

4) Partial Immersion: A great porcentage is taught through L2.


PRESTIGIOUS

Students learn two prestigious languages, which are kept separated in order to broaden their social interactions, for instance Chinese and English, which can be used for different purposes but the main one could be considered as business relationships.

MAINTANANCE

It keeps the preservation of L1 during the acquisition of the dominant language.

It´s the usage of two languages

Bilingual education models

Monoglossic

This type doesn´t mix the languages, it keeps them separated.

Heteroglossic

It refers to the coexistence of languages in a single tongue.

What´s bilingualism?

CLIL

This refers to an educational approach where knowledge is taught in a non-native language.

Concurrent

This carries similarities with the translanguaguing model since the usage of multiple languages isn´t forbidden, this is to eventually acquire the additional language.
