Language Policy materials

[Wayne Wright]

In addition to Corson's book Francis mentioned, another great resource
is Rebecca Freeman's "Building on Community Bilingualism." Freeman shows
how to put Corson's ideas in action by giving practical suggestions and
planning tools, and also gives examples of actual school language policy
and planning processes.

Subject: [Edling] Language Policy materials


Dear all,
The international school where I currently teach ESL will be revising
and rewriting its language policy. I will be engaged in this process,
but where do I start? How do I begin writing language policies? Whose
voices in the language ed. academe should I hear at this initial stage
of policy writing? Any books, authors, articles or other electronic
resources that you can recommend will be most appreciated!


Warm regards, 

Ligia (Licho) Lopez
