Preferred term

deaf bilingual education  

Definition

  • Deaf students are often neglected in the academic and professional discourse in the bilingual education field. In policy and practice, however, bilingual education is not limited to immigrant students whose family members speak a minority language, or to students learning a new language in addition to the majority language.
