Description
Introduction Effectively teaching language minority children has been an issue debated among educators, policy makers, parents and other stakeholders. The debate even gets more complicated in nations with multiethnic/multilingual societies than those with comparatively fewer numbers of spoken languages. Policies aimed at addressing the needs of language minority students have been challenged from various groups. The major challenges include addressing such concerns as: which ethnic groups reserve the right of introducing their language as a medium of instruction and how does such practice impact national interest and even national unity? How do we address the language needs of minority students while keeping the academic standards high? Should the role of minority langue be cultural maintenance or the facilitation of instruction through the mother tongue? To what extent does the use of minority language prepare the child for the global world?
