Exploring the Influences of Motivation and Schooling on Bilingualism
Friday, May 6, 2016 at 3:30 PM–4:15 PM EDT
10 Wayland
Abstract
Case studies of three bilinguals reflecting back on their experiences demonstrate how bilinguals fluctuate in terms of how much they use or strive to maintain their two languages at different times in their lives. We will discuss the effect of motivation and the implications for P-12 instruction in this context.
