In 1988, the first bilingual educational model in Latin America, managed autonomously by an indigenous social movement, was institutionalized in Ecuador. The will was to challenge the hierarchies of knowledge and an exclusive society. Since the colonial period, the indigenous population, their languages, knowledge and practices had been confined to a subordinate and invisible condition. It had been done through discourses and measures that imagined and manufactured 'the other as other', and reduced it to the space of the non-human, in order to legitimize exploitation and oppression. The indigenous movement, creator of the project, broke into history with the 1990 uprising, and presented itself as a subversive force whose purpose was to decolonize the Ecuadorian racist imaginary. He proposed a political and epistemological challenge, to build what Latin American critical thinking has called "critical interculturality." This proposal, different from multiculturalism, is forged in a counter-discourse that is based on creating a group ('we, the indigenous people') linked by centuries of discrimination, and an 'ancestral' and 'millennial' culture, which is recreated and reinvented claiming a new identity. In this book, the author analyzes the historical reasons why the Intercultural Bilingual Education (EIB) project emerged in Ecuador. In addition, the tensions between this, aimed at decolonizing knowledge and subverting racialized hierarchies, and how it was applied in a State that declares itself 'intercultural and plurinational'. Through an analysis that is historically based and solidly anchored in field work, she will try to answer the multiple questions that arise in the daily practice of the project.

This book investigates the role native language plays in the process of acquiring a second language within a bilingual educational model. The research presented is based on a 2 year longitudinal study of students in a bilingual school. Particular attention is paid to the development of academic language proficiency. Performance in both languages was compared between two groups of peers learning in submersion classes in Germany and in Portugal. This comparison allows the assessment of effects of a given bilingual education programme. There is a considerable advantage found for the students who learned in the bilingual environment, both in written and in oral samples. These students developed a more proficient bilingual academic discourse ability; socioeconomic status and cognitive abilities were controlled for. When comparing the results with an external measure for school achievement, the advantage was confirmed. The results also hint at didactic factors which seem to contribute to this performance.

This revised edition of Bilingualism in Schools and Society is an accessible introduction to the sociolinguistic and educational aspects of and the political issues surrounding bilingualism, including code-switching in popular music, advertising, and online social spaces. It also addresses the personal aspect of the topic in a well-informed discussion of what it means to study and live with multiple languages in a globalized world and practical advice on raising bilingual children. Extensive new material has been added that deals with more holistic understandings of bilingual performance, including translanguaging, flexible bilingualism, and code-meshing; blending standard and vernacular languages/dialects in hybrid texts; and recent developments in policies surrounding the education of English Learners and EL assessment, including Common Core State Standards (CCSS), PARCC and SBAC testing, WIDA and ELPA21 language assessments, and Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). Updated and new discussions on community-based heritage language programs and'super-diversity'further enhance this new edition, along with updated statistics on bilingual populations and the world's top languages. Each chapter includes lists of further readings, helpful digital resources and study questions, as well as student activities and boxed vignettes. Firmly grounded in the analysis of empirical work with bilingual children and adults in various multilingual settings throughout the world, Bilingualism in Schools and Society is the ideal text for courses on bilingualism in language education programs.
