Educational Possibilities Amidst the Gentrification of Dual Language Bilingual Education: Solution-Oriented Research
Sun, April 14, 9:35 to 11:05am, Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, Floor: Level 4, Franklin 6Session Type: Symposium
Abstract
Scholars and educators in the field of dual language bilingual education (DLBE) have increasingly grown concerned about how privileged students and families have often benefited inequitably from DLBE’s increased popularity in the 21st century. This symposium optimistically connects the newest research on this topic to potential solutions. The papers in this symposium draw attention to how understanding and responding to the gentrification of DLBE is part of the broader fight to dismantle racial and educational injustice for multilingual and immigrant communities in US schools. Each presentation will document unique aspects of the phenomenon—at different scales and in different contexts—and include practical recommendations with action steps that will speak to the conference theme of constructing educational possibilities.
