Dual Language Programs: A Definition In. this. article,. dual. language. refers. to. an. enrichment. bilingual/multicultural. education. program.(Hornberger,. 1990). in. which. language. equity. is. structurally. defined. as. equal. time. exposure. to. two. languages,. that. is,. the. 50/50. model.(Etxeberria,. 1993).. These. programs. are. often. called. de elopmental. because. the. funding. source.(Title. VII,. Impro ing. America’s. Schools. Act,. 1994). labels. them. as. such,. and. because. linguistic,. psychological,. social,. and. cogniti e. de elopmental. issues. are. taken. into. account. in. program. design.. They. are. sometimes. labeled. enrichment. because. a. central. tenet. of. such. programs. is. that. a. language. should. be. added. to. the. one. the. children. already. know. and. that. children’s. academic. growth. in. both. languages. should. be. fostered.
