I love that the module pointed out that just because the information is presented in a person's first language does not mean that they are literate in that language. Becoming literate in a language is a process and it doesn't all happen at once (reading/writing and speaking).

Students should be allowed to use their "mother tongue". Language is a part of their culture.  Also, language and literacy are not equal.  Someone may speak multiple languages but have low literacy.
