Exploring the Development and Experiences of Dual Language Learners in Early Care and Education (Zoom)
Join us for the March Crane Research Forum with Dr. Ji-Young Choi, Crane faculty affiliate and associate professor of Human Development and Family Science at The Ohio State University. Understanding the experiences and development of dual language learners in preschool classrooms, where English is the primary language of instruction and interaction, is central to providing developmentally appropriate practices. During this presentation, Dr. Choi will highlight research that refutes deficit views on dual language development and education and will explore equitable classroom environments for linguistically diverse children. She will also discuss implications for early childhood programs and educators working with dual language learners. Dr. Choi is an expert on early childhood development of multilingual learners. Her research investigates two connected areas: (1) how and why individual developmental differences emerge during 0 to 5 years; and (2) how to better support this early development for children from linguistically and economically diverse backgrounds. She has served as a principal and co-investigator on several federally funded research projects and has published peer-reviewed studies in leading research journals.
