E-raamat: Scaffolding Language Development in Immersion and Dual Language Classrooms

I would highly recommend this book to preservice and in-service K-12 teachers, other educators, and researchers interested in second language education. Tedick and Lyster provide a much-needed research-based presentation of pedagogical practices to enhance language development in dual language and immersion classrooms. Their clear definitions, specific strategies and instructional models, and self-assessment tools add a significant layer of depth to our understanding of how to teach two languages in dual language and immersion classrooms. This book provides important implications for program design, curriculum, and instructional practices in dual language and immersion programs to significantly improve language learning and teaching.

Tedick and Lyster have drawn on decades of research and experience to produce this remarkable book. The authors deep knowledge of classroom practices and their respect for teachers creativity and hard work are reflected on every page. From reviewing research findings to providing guidance for lesson planning and pedagogy, the book is comprehensive, original, and practical. It will become a foundational text for teacher education and professional development in immersion and dual language education. - Patsy Lightbown, Distinguished Professor Emerita, Education, Concordia University, Canada I would highly recommend this book to preservice and in-service K-12 teachers, other educators, and researchers interested in second language education.
