✦ Synopsis

This book focuses on the use of the L1 in communicative or immersion-type classrooms. Through the intersection of theory, practice, curriculum and policy, the book calls for a reconceptualization of codeswitching as something that is inherently linked with bilingual codeswitching and something that proficient and aspiring bilinguals do naturally.
