“…In addition, recent studies support the claim that the preparation of bi/multilingual rather than monolingual information seekers is necessary for global and more equal scientific progress (Amano et al , 2021a, 2021b, 2023; Angulo et al , 2021; Nuñez and Amano, 2021; Ransing et al , 2023; Zenni et al , 2023). Unfortunately, to date, there is little evidence about the type of sources selected by students when engaged in academic bilingual tasks as previous research has largely focused on monolingual educational practices (Alamettälä and Sormunen, 2021; Brante, 2019; Macedo-Rouet et al , 2020; McGrew et al , 2018; Kiili et al , 2021; Paul et al , 2019; Paul et al , 2017, 2018; Potocki et al , 2020; Schiffl, 2020; Stenseth and Strømsø 2019). Our study provides evidence from a university bilingual science course, which helps expand this research.…”
