Abstract | A survey of 35 bilingual (Spanish-English) high school students found that all respondents acted as language brokers (informal translators) regardless of length of U.S. residence or availability of other brokers. Many students who reported relatively low school achievement had translated a variety of linguistically sophisticated documents. Discusses implications for school assessment and home-school communication. (Author/SV) |
