Diaz, Adriana Raquel; Mejía, Glenda; Villamizar, Andrés Gabriel – L2 Journal, 2022
This paper is motivated by growing, inexorable tensions between societal impetus to advance inclusive (non-binary) linguistic change across many Spanish-speaking communities, and the seemingly removed reality of the Spanish as a world language classroom. As a first step in reconciling these tensions and breaking free from apparent disciplinary…

We propose several important considerations that are necessary for the creation of research-based assessments of partner language development in DLI programs, focusing on Spanish as an example.

This study reports how authors use Spanish in award-winning Latinx children's picturebooks in the USA. Teachers, families, and librarians use these books to support heritage language and culture or to broaden children's understanding of cultures other than their own. Thus, how these books use Spanish matters because of the potential of these books…

Goodrich, J. Marc; Fitton, Lisa; Thayer, Lauren – Annals of Dyslexia, 2023
Understanding factors that influence reading achievement among bilingual children is considerably more complex than it is for monolingual children.

Sparks, Richard L.; Alamer, Abdullah – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2023
Although studies have consistently found negative correlations between second language (L2) anxiety and L2 achievement, the anxiety concept is criticized for the failure to consider confounding variables, particularly first language (L1) achievement, in the relationship between language anxiety and language achievement. Also, past studies tend to…
