This book investigates how bilingualism affects children’s language, cognitive and narrative abilities. The data sample derives from 209 8-12 years old bilingual children, in three different targeted languages (Greek-English, Greek-German, Greek-Albanian) along with 100 monolingual Greek children. The children completed baseline and experimental tasks measuring their vocabulary, grammar, cognitive skills, and narrative production abilities. The outcome of this work reveals that learning to read and write in two languages is beneficial for the development of language and cognitive skills. A strong case can be made to the growing bilingual communities in Germany and beyond to provide literacy training in both languages within mainstream schools, afternoon classes outside of the curriculum or in community schools.

Poetic books have been used for centuries in the tradition of Islamic education.

Migrationen verändern bestehende Sprach- und Kulturräume. Nur mithilfe genauerer migrationswissenschaftlicher Kenntnisse der Bedingungen des individuellen und sozialen Sprachgebrauchs können kleinere Sprachgemeinschaften von Migranten gegenüber konkurrierenden Nationalsprachen geschützt werden. Die Beiträge des vorliegenden Bandes widmen sich diesem Thema aus dem Blickwinkel unterschiedlicher Länder und Fachrichtungen, darunter der Sprachkontaktforschung, der Soziolinguistik, der Bildungspolitik, der Neurophänomenologie und den Kulturwissenschaften. Migration alters existing linguistic and cultural areas. Only a more precise knowledge of the conditions that determine individual and social language use enables us to protect smaller speech communities of migrants from competing national languages. The contributions in this volume examine this range of topics from the perspective of various countries and research disciplines including language contact studies, sociolinguistics, education policy, neurophenomenology and cultural studies.
