Two Languages in One Mind in the Classroom

This article discusses the immeasurable contributions of Judy Kroll's pioneering work in the field of bilingualism research, emphasizing how her interdisciplinary approach, theoretical insights, and empirical innovation have shaped our understanding of bilingual language processing, the language and cognition interaction, and the social and cultural implications of bilingualism. In that context and on the basis of Judy's theoretical insights and empirical findings, we offer a new and promising approach to look at the bilingual experience through the lens of graph analyses, highlighting how Judy's research affects the current debate over dual-language education in Brazil.
