Outline of Final Research Achievements

Three pedagogical implications emerged out of analyses of pre-writing strategies (PWS) and the writing expertise of bilingual writers; 1) the importance of instructive strategies that cultivates the use of entire linguistic repertoire of bilingual students, 2) the importance of explicit teaching of PWS to those who have limited writing abilities in both of the languages, and 3) the heightened importance of teaching PWS for heritage language learners in particular. The importance of teaching for enhancing not only the varieties of single words but also the varieties of lexical bundles, or set of several words, in the teaching of bilingual writing was also pointed out in the analysis of the development of productive vocabularies. Finally, through the qualitative analysis of interviews that were conducted with the parents of these bilingual writers, it was revealed how conscious support from the parents at home benefits the biliteracy development of young bilingual students.
