<div>Hi Lorrie,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>That is a frustrating situation!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would recommend the recent work of Illna Umansky, Rachel Valentino, and Sean Reardon, where they analyzed 12 years of data from a CA district withSEI, transitional, maintenance, and DL programs. Their findings are a bit mixed, but an important issue
as it relates to your issue is their finding that if you look at the short term you can draw the wrong conclusions about the effectiveness of the bilingual education models. They also make a nice argument overall for bilingual program models, especially given
the additional benefits (e.g., bilngualism, biliteracy) that can result without any long-term impact on their English proficiency and academic performance. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A highly accessible version of their research appears in a recent issue of <i>
Educational Leadership </i>that was theme-focused on helping ELLs Excel. Here’s the full reference. </div>

bilingual ed programming. But since 1999 the state has limited the student’s time in such programs to 30 months.</span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;">
</span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;">Consequently, our bilingual ed programs have been forced into transitional programs, as opposed to maintenance programs.</span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;">
</span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;">While the program design may vary from district to district, a number of them claim to follow this practice: Year 1: 90% L1/10% L2; Year 2: 50%/50%; and Year 3: 10% L1/90% L2--English.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><font size="3" face="Calibri">A number of the larger districts have just reported that after 3 years in bil ed, their EL students are performing more poorly on their standardized language assessment (LAS Links),
then are those ELs who declined bilingual ed, and received only limited pullout ESL while integrated in mainstream classroom for the same 3 years.
<o:p></o:p></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><font size="3" face="Calibri"> I am familiar with studies that show this patterning (favoring immersion with ESL support) after only 10 months of schooling. And I understand why this occurs, given that the
positive results of bilingual ed are often deferred until later. Numbers of studies indicate that the positive results of bilingual education are often not fully evident as measured by English academic tests until 4-5 years after students begin bilingual
ed. <o:p></o:p></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><font size="3" face="Calibri">But to see consistent patterning from districts in my state, in which ESL pullout students achieve stronger test scores than Bilingual Ed students after 30 months, has me stymied.
I don’t know how to talk to the teachers about the ultimate value of bilingual education, when they are claiming that their data proves otherwise at the end of 3 years.<o:p></o:p></font></p>

<div>It is important for me to insist that translanguaging is something quite different from polylanguaging and that the practice of teaching in one language (e.g. Danish) while using textbooks and other material in other languages (like, in Denmark, Danish,
Norwegian, Swedish, English and German) was a form of translanguaging widely practiced until the '90. The success of EMI did stop that for teaching in English - not because there is anything wrong with teaching in English in an non-English-speaking country,
but because under conditions of internationalization, what counts is not how many languages are present in the university classroom (far more than before) but how many shared languages are available (often only English). This is Taina Saarinen and Tarja Nikula's <i>paradox
of internationalization</i>. (See also the paper by Fabricius, Mortensen and myself on "The lure of internationalization" now available on-line in
<i>Higher Education</i>.)</div>

<div>At AAAL in Florida a few weeks ago there were at least 3 symposia dealing with multilingualism in the classroom, many from a translanguaging perspective, which followed several symposia and papers from last year’s conference on translanguaging, and including
a lively debate about the differences between code-switching and translanguaging framework. To answer the “many ways” part of Larry’s comment: the translanguaging work has included looking at bilingual K-12 classrooms, but also heritage language schools,
higher education settings, academic second language writing, as well as looking at it from an interactional perspective of what students in classroom do to negotiate academic content, from the teacher’s perspective of how she more effectively draws on students’
multilingual resources; it’s also been used to look at multilingual workspaces, transnationals’ social media posts, as so forth. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I agree that the term is being used in a variety of ways that aren’t always consistent with each other (as with any newer concept, and hence those questioning if the term is really needed if “code-switching” still does perfectly well), but generally it
seems most people using it are trying to capture Garcia’s notion of a post-structural approach to looking at multilingual repertoires through language practice – which therefore includes but is broader than code-switching (and like most po-mo concepts quite
hard to pin down). </div>

<div>Ofelia Garcia’s (2009) <i>Bilingual Education in the 21 Century</i> is a good comprehensive text and has a clear explanation of translanguaging, though as Anne Marie mentions the concept is being used in many ways recently, and also harkens back to earlier
bilingual approaches to bilingual ed such as Jacobson’s (1980s) “New Concurrent” approach which advocated the teacher’s use of purposeful and strategic language mixing. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>About the positioning of above-below vs. side-to-side: I’m not aware of any work on this specific aspect of language positioning, but would say from a (1) linguistic perspective, it makes good sense to put a particular sentence in one language above another
so that students can more clearly see how syntactic and lexical elements line up. However, from a (2) language valorization perspective, the problem the observer may have had was not above-below per se, but rather that English was positioned ABOVE Spanish,
which may be seen as implicitly reinforcing the subordinate position of the minoritized language. In that case, positioning the languages side by side represents them on more equal footing (or even use above/below, but put Spanish on top). Or maybe the observer
was just being cranky… but kudos to the teacher for taking the critique seriously and following up. </div>

<div>Current research is coming out strongly in favour of 'translanguaging' where code switching is seen as a benefit to learners rather than a sign of lack of acquisition.</div>
<div>I'm not at my desk and don't have access to references at the moment, but a google search should bring up some interesting findings to support your colleagues approach.</div>

Subject: [Edling] Urgent question from bilingual teacher<br>

<div>
<div>Dear Colleagues,<br>
<br>
</div>
A grad of one of our programs is a bilingual (Spanish) social studies teacher in New York City, with 11 years of teaching experience.<br>
<br>
</div>
The teacher received a super-critical review of a class observation from somebody outside the school who observed a single lesson. The observer knew nothing in advance about the teacher's curriculum or approach; there had been no communication with the teacher
in advance of the observation. After having written a scathing observation report, the observer refused to have a conversation with the teacher, who sought politely to explain their perspective and try to understand better the nature of the critique.<br>
<br>
</div>
The teacher has requested input on one issue in particular:<br>
</div>
At the top of the lesson, the teacher had written a guiding question in English with the Spanish version directly underneath.<br>
<br>
</div>
The teacher, as I understand it, sought to have the students first try to understand the text in English, then read it in Spanish, and using all linguistic resources make meaning out of the question. (And ultimately, the students will be tested in English.)<br>
<br>
</div>
One of the many criticisms in the observation report was that the English and Spanish versions should have appeared side by side rather than one above the other. The teacher is perplexed.<br>
<br>
</div>
While the teacher's explanation makes sense to me, I have been asked whether there is any objective guidance available from the research on best practices to advocate for EITHER of the 2 approaches (2 languages side by side versus one above the other).
<br>
<br>
</div>
Thank you in advance for sharing your perspective. I'll pass it on.<br>
<br>
</div>
Sincerely,<br>
</div>
Miriam<br>
