Toolkit Planning for Language Use in Education Global 08 2015

Language-specific concerns 

Some languages may not be 
sufficiently “developed” for 
academic learning, especially 
in subjects like science and 
mathematics 

Lack of literacy materials 
and/or few or no materials for 
teaching curricular content 

Languages (both writing systems and terminology) develop over time 
and with use, so using a language for instruction actually fosters 
development. Universities, language experts, and linguistic 
organizations can help communities develop and standardize writing 
systems for their languages. 

A review of existing materials can often identify resources that can be 
used or modified. Additional literacy and subject materials can be 
developed over a relatively short amount of time with good planning. 

Low-cost desktop publishing resources (such as those being 
supported by USAID’s Enabling Writers initiative, 
https://www.omnicompete.com/enabling_writers.html
), the availability 
of digital repositories of books (such as the African Storybook Project 



Concerns and challenges 
Responses and approaches 
(
http://www.africanstorybook.org/
), and locally made materials (such 
as letter pocket charts for teaching reading) can help to more easily 
meet materials needs. Local publishers, nongovernmental 
organizations (NGOs), and locally trained authors can be tapped for 
materials development. Teachers and parents, as well as language 
groups and organizations, can also contribute to materials 
development.
Linguistic diversity concerns 

National unity will be 
compromised if multiple 
languages are used for 
instruction 

Using indigenous languages 
will hinder a country’s growth 
and participation in global 
economy 

National unity is promoted when education offers equitable 
opportunities for all. The presence of strong institutions—including 
education systems—in areas of high ethnolinguistic diversity actually 
decreases the likelihood of conflict. 

A country’s growth is hindered when its population remains 
uneducated and does not acquire the skills needed for a modern 
economy. Using languages children understand helps them to gain 
such skills.
