| Publisher Description: The rationale for this book is to review the historical precedents of bilingual educational programs and how it had helped non-speaking English immigrants assimilate into the educational system in the United States. This book is about how viable bilingual educational programs helped shape language acquisition for English Language Learners. Also, whether the English Language Learners/Immigrants or the mainstream will assume the jobs of the future, or if the mainstream will stay in control of the employment through their participation in these dual language programs? It is my belief that bilingual educational programs had worked in the United States of America, and can work in Africa and everywhere else around the world. |
