The Workshop on Bilingualism brings together some of today’s top researchers in the area to present high-quality empirical experimental evidence on what it means to be bilingual, how we identify individuals as bilingual, and what bilingualism looks like across subareas of language and across development. The workshop also features a panel discussion devoted to community outreach, featuring students and faculty from Rutgers, with the goal of underscoring the connection between research and the community, exchanging ideas and outreach activities, and highlighting the work underway to educate researchers, teachers, and families on bilingualism.
