The Center for Applied Linguistics and Brown University's The Education Alliance, have published “Two-way Immersion Education:The Basics” with definitions, features, goals and recommended reading materials about dual language education in United States.

“Dual language programs use two languages for literacy and content instruction for all students. In the United States, programs use English and a partner language, often Spanish.

They provide instruction in the two languages over an extended period of time, from kindergarten through at least fifth grade. Instruction is in the partner language at least 50% of the time.”
