Mackelduff, Eleanor; Glick, Toby
This content analysis schedule for the Pilot Bilingual Program of Redwood City, California presents information on the history, funding, and scope of the project. Included are sociolinguistic process variables such as the native and dominant languages of students and their interaction. Information is provided on staff selection and the linguistic background of project teachers. An assessment is made of the duration and extent of the bilingual component, and the methods of second language teaching in general. Included is an analysis of materials, student grouping, tutoring, curriculum patterns, and cognitive development. The report also discusses self-esteem, learning strategies, the bicultural and community components, and means of evaluation. Included are various questionnaires supplying information on the background and attitudes of parents involved in the project, and a modification of the long range objectives as a result of the first year's operation.
