| Summary: | "This Handbook offers a description of the wide array of second language programs currently available to undergraduate students in the United States and abroad. It brings together detailed descriptions of programs in foreign language, English as a second language (ESL), dual language (bilingual), American Sign Language (ASL), Native American, and heritage languages. Addressing both theory and practice, this volume presents the historical development, current practices, and future directions of each type of program, along with detailed case studies." "For second language teachers, academic administrators, and teacher educators, this Handbook provides information that will be useful in making instructional and programmatic-planning decisions. It is especially timely because the study of a second language has become increasingly important to many undergraduates who, regardless of their academic majors, recognize the personal, academic, and professional benefits of bilingualism."--Jacket. |
