Workshops on bilingualism and bilingual children http://www.workshops-en.childbilingualism.org/
When: January 31 2012, from 19:30 to 22:00
Since 2009, researchers from Utrecht Institute of Linguistics, Sharon Unsworth, Manuela Pinto and Ivana Brasilero, have been holding regular workshops on the topic of bilingualism and bilingual children. At the moment, the next event is planned for January 2012.
Growing up bilingual: what the research says
Ever wondered whether learning two languages confuses children? When learning a second language, does an early start always guarantee success? How early is early enough? These are just some of the questions touched upon in this first of a series of public lectures from a team of researchers at Utrecht University. In three short talks, Ivana Brasileiro, Manuela Pinto and Sharon Unsworth provide a whistle-stop tour of some of the most recent research results on bilingual language acquisition, including from the Utrecht institute of Linguistics lab.
When? January 31 2012, from 19:30 to 22:00
Where? Utrecht, Academiegebouw, Maskeradezaal
Who? This session is intended for parents, educators, expats, speech language therapists, trainee teachers and anyone with a general interest in bilingualism and bilingual children.
If you attended one of our previous workshops, we want to draw your attention to the fact that the presentation content will be different from previous events, so do please come along!
The event concludes with the launch of our new website, growingupbilingual.org, a new resource bringing together the best of the internet for parents raising their children with two or more languages in the Netherlands and beyond.
