Abstract: Teach in Spanglish is founded on a simple idea: while just a small fraction of today’s college students will progress to the high-level, all-in-Spanish courses offered by language departments, more than two-thirds enter college with the ability to understand Spanish when given context in English, support from their instructor, and time. If you are a professor whose research analyzes materials in Spanish or Spanglish, you can teach in Spanglish regardless of how comfortable you feel speaking in Spanish. If you are a teacher who can read a basic text in Spanish, you can also teach in Spanglish.

Teach in Spanglish: Latinx History with Bilingual Primary Sources (Article)
Title: Teach in Spanglish: Latinx History with Bilingual Primary Sources

Abstract: Teach in Spanglish (teachinspanglish.org) is founded on a simple idea: while just a small fraction of today’s college students will progress to the high-level, all-in-Spanish courses offered by language departments, more than two-thirds enter college with the ability to understand Spanish when given context in English, support from their instructor, and time. Over nearly a decade in the classroom, our work has shown that students who took Spanish for at least two years in high school, at least one year in college, and/or who were raised in a bilingual environment (Spanish as a Heritage Language speakers, or SHL) can, with proper support, engage in high-level analysis of Spanish and Spanglish primary sources and original texts, utilizing insights from linguistics to both structure the classroom experience and guide students in their engagement.
