  • Some years ago at a conference on bilingual education, a paper was delivered with the title “If Bilingual Education Is the Answer, What Is the Question?” The presentation suggested that all the stakeholders involved in bilingual education were not in agreement about its central purpose. Since then, many pages have been written about the effectiveness of bilingual education and its value in and out of the classroom.
