Critical Consciousness in Dual Language Bilingual Education Summary

Critical Consciousness in Dual Language Bilingual Education: Case Studies on Policy and Practice by Lisa M. Dorner

This book features case studies that address dual language bilingual education (DLBE) programs, which offer content instruction in two languages to help youth develop fluent bilingualism/biliteracy, high academic achievement, and sociocultural competence. While increasingly popular, the DLBE model is a framework that comes with unique hurdles and challenges.

Applying a pioneering critical consciousness approach, the volume provides readers with narratives, awareness, and tools to support culturally and linguistically diverse students and their families. Organized around four major areas-policy, leadership, family and community engagement, teaching and teacher learning-the volume's case studies bring together stories from policymakers, educational leaders, family and community members, and teachers. The case studies spotlight examples in which power imbalances have been identified and shifted through critically conscious actions and offer insight into how to ensure all DLBE programs are nurturing, empowering, multilingual environments for all students, particularly racialized, immigrant, and transnational students. Accessible and varied, the case studies address important topics such as anti-Black racism, digital access, disability, school-district relations, working with undocumented families, and more. Each chapter includes a case narrative, teaching notes, discussion questions, and/or teaching activities to support stakeholders who wish to develop and enact equity in their DLBE policies, classrooms, and professional development.

A key resource for supporting student needs and transformative inquiry in the classroom, this book is ideal for graduate students, professors, leaders, educators, and other stakeholders in bilingual education and language education.

Critical Consciousness in Dual Language Bilingual Education Reviews

This collection is a much needed contribution to the field. It is an invaluable resource for researchers, practitioners, and parents who are committed to social justice.

--Guadalupe M. Valdes, Professor Emeritus, Stanford University

The stories and testimonios told in the chapters move the field beyond simple criticism of DLBE to reconstructing it so that it educates minoritized emergent bilinguals equitably.

--Ofelia Garcia, Professor Emeritus, The Graduate Center, City University of New York

This comprehensive volume makes a compelling case to add a fourth goal to the existing goals of DLBE: Critical Consciousness. Each chapter provides an example of how critical consciousness is an essential resource for all educators who strive to promote language equity in practice with multilingual, multicultural, and transnational learners.

--M. Beatriz Arias, Senior Research Scientist, Center for Applied Linguistics, Washington, DC

This book is a GREATLY needed resource for educators in the field. I recommend this book to every administrator and educator who is truly passionate about fulfilling the exciting promise of bilingual education.

--Amy Young, Minnesota Department of Education

Through the case studies presented in this important volume, the editors and contributors provide helpful, concrete examples that will inspire us all to make critical consciousness the very foundation of DLBE.

--Kate Menken, Queens College, City University of New York

Educators, researchers, policymakers, and teacher educators in the U.S. and beyond will appreciate the instructive and inspiring glimpses into the transformative, liberatory possibilities that exist in and through DLBE.

--Mariana Pacheco, Associate Professor, UW-Madison
