[FR] La Révolution bilingue, ce qu’en dit Louis Duvernois, sénateur des Français établis hors de France

Le monde moderne nous oblige, pour se sentir en harmonie avec lui, à penser global et à agir local. L’éducation bilingue est sans conteste aujourd’hui la solution la plus originale et la plus efficace pour relever le défi de l’ouverture à la langue française et au monde francophone, en partenariat avec d’autres grandes langues nationales. Le bilinguisme n’est pas seulement l’apprentissage simultané de deux langues universelles, mais aussi une scolarisation dans le respect et le génie de chacune des deux langues d’enseignement. Les neuropsychiatres affirment que cette double exposition  est un atout pour le cerveau et que plus on pratique ce bilinguisme, mieux c’est pour l’enfant. Le livre-enquête et d’analyse de Fabrice Jaumont, Phd, spécialiste de ce type d’éducation reconnue dans de nombreux pays, est en phase avec l’accélération de la mondialisation éducative, tant dans les écoles publiques que privées. La France est pour sa part en pointe en matière de développement du caractère bilingue de la pédagogie française déjà attractive à l’étranger.

[FR] L’éducation bilingue : la volte-face des parents et des communautés par Ofelia García – Avant-propos de La Révolution bilingue de Fabrice Jaumont

Ce livre [La Révolution bilingue] apporte une contribution des plus importantes en se concentrant sur un sujet souvent absent, celui du rôle primordial que jouent les parents de divers milieux ethnolinguistiques dans le façonnement de l’éducation de leurs enfants aux États-Unis. Les livres sur l’éducation bilingue sont souvent destinés aux enseignants, et très peu se sont intéressés à ce que les familles pouvaient faire pour s’assurer que les écoles publiques américaines développent des filières d’éducation bilingue pour leurs enfants. L’histoire la plus importante que raconte le livre de Fabrice Jaumont est ce désir des familles américaines de voir leurs enfants apprendre en deux langues, en anglais mais aussi dans une langue à laquelle ils se sentent particulièrement liés. Contrairement à ce que pense l’opinion publique, les familles américaines de diverses origines ethnolinguistiques sont prêtes à développer des programmes d’éducation bilingue pour leurs enfants.

Bilingual Education: Making a U-Turn with Parents and Communities by Ofelia García – Foreword to The Bilingual Revolution by Fabrice Jaumont

This book [The Bilingual Revolution] makes a most important contribution because it focuses on a topic that is often absent––that of the important role that parents of different ethnolinguistic backgrounds have in shaping an appropriate education for their children in the United States. Usually books on bilingual education are for teachers and little attention has been previously paid to how families can act to ensure that American public schools develop bilingual education programs for their children. The most important story told by Fabrice Jaumont in this book is that of the desire of American families to have their children schooled bilingually, in English, but also in a language that has deep connections to them. Contrary to popular opinion, American families with different ethnolinguistic backgrounds are interested in developing bilingual education programs for their children.
