Bilingual-bicultural education
- Bilingual-bicultural education
Bilingual-bicultural or BiBi educational programs focus on making the classroom bilingual via a means of natural native sign language used to buttress learning for a written spoken language.
Famous examples of schools utilising the BiBi method in the US include California School for the Deaf, Fremont; Maryland School for the Deaf and especially Indiana School for the Deaf.
Deaf teacher and vlogger (or video blogger) Barb DiGi specialises in bilingual education of the Deaf and has released a few vlogs on this topic: [http://youtube.com/watch?v=PgxtbXtczF8 The Right of the Deaf Child to Grow Up Bilingual] and [http://youtube.com/watch?v=f94UcIa21T0 Bilingual instruction in action with Deaf Children: NALB] . NALB, or "No ASL Left Behind" has gained popularity with the Deaf community.
