1. Immersion in a minority language
Immersion in a minority language mean is deepening of the minority languages ​
in the area. This has a function to facilitate interaction activities between
students, socialize, and understand what other people are talking about
Example: when outsiders come to an area they use the majority language for
example Indonesian, but when they want to interact with people from that area,
they also have to learn the language of the minority in that area in order to
facilitate their activities in that area

2. Maintenance/heritage language programs.
In maintenance/heritage language programs students usually come from
minority language families, where the minority language is used half or
more of the curriculum time. The justification is that the minority language
is easily lost but not the majority language which is easily obtained from
anywhere, for example TV, mobile phones, social media and others. This
program intends not to get rid of the minority language but by still learning
the majority language

3. Two way/dual language programs
This program usually occurs when approximately equal numbers of children
from the minority language and the majority language are in the same class.
There are several ways of teaching that are used when this happens, namely:
• Teaching the curriculum area in a different language.
• The two languages ​are separated according to the teacher, time, and
place.
• The teacher also uses the method of “translation”.

4. Mainstream Bilingual
Mainstream bilingual Education is defined as the use of two ( or more )
majority languages in a classroom, with the goals of bilingualism, and
biliteracy. Bilingual education in majority languages means that some
curriculum content is learnt through a student’s second language. In Europe,
this is often called Content and Language Integrated Learning
