Bilingual Pedagogy
Edit

Bilingual pedagogy refers to an educational approach in which two languages are systematically incorporated into teaching and learning processes, with language functioning not only as an object of instruction but also as a medium through which learners develop linguistic and academic knowledge [1]. The concept encompasses instructional practices, classroom interaction patterns, and pedagogical frameworks that organize the relationship between learners’ multiple linguistic resources and educational objectives [1][2]. Unlike approaches that treat languages as strictly separate instructional systems, bilingual pedagogy may recognize the interaction, coordination, or strategic use of learners’ bilingual repertoires within educational contexts [2]. It is distinguished from bilingual education as a broader educational structure in that bilingual pedagogy specifically concerns the theories and practices governing how bilingual learning and teaching are conducted.
