Produktbeschreibung
Research abounds that attests to the ever raging battle between proponents of "Bilingual Education" (BE) and the supporters of a "Total Immersion" (TI) approach to teaching and promoting English language proficiency among English Language Learners (ELL's) in the United States and elsewhere in the world.

While the results appear to support a TI approach, they raised more questions than they answered.
