Abstract:
Statistical learning refers to the ability to track regular patterns in sensory input from ambient environments. This learning mechanism can exploit a wide range of statistical structures (e.g., frequency, distribution, and co-occurrence probability). Given its regularities and hierarchical structures, language is essentially a pattern-based system and therefore researchers have argued that statistical learning is fundamental to language acquisition (e.g., Saffran, 2003). Indeed, young infants and adults can find words in artificial languages by tracking syllable co-occurrence probabilities an

<p> This study investigated bilingual advantages at additional languages learning by comparing early, highly proficient bilinguals to monolinguals' learning of an additional language in adulthood.

The data consist of classroom observations in one 3rd grade (9–10 years old) and one 7th grade (13–14 years old) science class. In addition, the students in the 7th grade were interviewed.

Using language as a tool to engage in social activity and mediate learning is a human experience.

Language minority students who have learning disabilities are also challenged to create meaning in a language that is not native and that may be limited, particularly as it relates to academic learning.

Abstract:
Minority children have consistently received less than an equitable education compared to children of non-minority backgrounds. Inequitable treatment has been evidenced by the disproportionate number of minority children in special education programs. The overrepresentation of minorities has been documented primarily in mentally retarded and learning disabilities (LD) programs. Hispanics (Spanish speakers), in particular, have been among these minorities. The projected increase of Hispanics in the population over the next ten years compounds the problem of overrepresentation. Contributing fact
