My Research Path

*The best model for our district is a Two-Way Dual Language Program.

*The programs that embrace L1 and also teach L2 are most beneficial for our non-native speaking students.

  • 1. Searched all the databases for as much as I could find
  • 2. Found between 2 to 6 articles for each model
  • 3. Used Baker as a guide throughout research
  • 4. Quickly learned less is more, used less articles

Five Models I Selected:

1. Two-Way Dual Language

2. Developmental Bilingual

(Maintenance or Heritage Language)

3. Immersion

4. Transitional Bilingual

5. Sheltered English
