A Study of Bilingual Chinese/English Children's Code Switching Behavior
A Study of Bilingual Chinese/English Children's Code Switching Behavior. This is an interesting article for those of you who deal with bilingual students. It is from Academic Exchange Quarterly.
From the site:
This paper reports the findings from a study that explores young Chinese/English bilingual children’s code switching behavior in a Chinese language program. In particular, it describes one bilingual child’s patterns of language use. The findings suggest that code switching was used as a communicative device by the children in the study. They switched languages during their speech in order to realize social function, pragmatic function, and meta-linguistic function. Educational implications are also provided.

Over the past year, one Collingsworth County teen had
been corresponding over the Internet with an adult
across the state, unknown to the juveniles parents.
This can be prevented in your home by
using parental control software on your computer and
by continuously having knowledge of what your child
does on the web.

When I was checking out blogs I found yours. It was not exactly what I was looking for but I thought it was quite interesting. I think that is why I enjoy looking at different blogs. You never know what you will find.

I also learn mandarin by a special and innovative service in Beijing Chinese School. I like to learn in live class with teachers from Beijing directly. I also like to practice mandarin with volunteers freely everyday. Watching Chinese mandarin learning TV on CLTV is also interesting and helpful to practice listening and learn more about Mandarin
There are some free Chinese lessons designed by CCTV (China Central TV) on Learn Chinese. You can try.
