Book excerpt: How do we effectively teach children from homes in which a language other than English is spoken? In Improving Schooling for Language-Minority Children, a committee of experts focuses on this central question, striving toward the construction of a strong and credible knowledge base to inform the activities of those who educate children as well as those who fund and conduct research. The book reviews a broad range of studiesâ€"from basic ones on language, literacy, and learning to others in educational settings. The committee proposes a research agenda that responds to issues of policy and practice yet maintains scientific integrity. This comprehensive volume provides perspective on the history of bilingual education in the United States; summarizes relevant research on development of a second language, literacy, and content knowledge; reviews past evaluation studies; explores what we know about effective schools and classrooms for these children; examines research on the education of teachers of culturally and linguistically diverse students; critically reviews the system for the collection of education statistics as it relates to this student population; and recommends changes in the infrastructure that supports research on these students.

Download or read book Language Minority Students in American Schools written by H. D. Adamson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-03-23 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses questions of language education in the United States, focusing on how to teach the 3.5 million students in American public schools who do not speak English as a native language. These students are at the center of a national debate about the right relationship among ESL, bilingual, and mainstream classes. Bilingual education has been banned by constitutional amendment in California and Arizona, and similar amendments are being considered in other states. Language Minority Students in American Schools: An Education in English places this debate and related issues of teaching standard English to speakers of nonstandard dialects, such as black English, within the larger context of language acquisition theory and current methods of language teaching. Adamson draws from the large body of sociolinguistic, psycholinguistic, and educational research, and on his own experience as an English teacher in the U.S. and overseas, to shed light on some of these controversies and on the cognitive, cultural, public policy, and practical issues involved in educating English language learners. Presenting all sides of the issues fairly, he offers a strong endorsement for bilingual and bidialectical education based on programs designed and administered according to the principles discussed in the book and supported by language acquisition theory and classroom research. A strength of the book is the inclusion of original research conducted in a middle school enrolling a majority of Latino students. This research contributes to the field of language education by providing a detailed description of how English language learners study content subjects. Examples from the study are used to illustrate a discussion of Vygotskian learning principles and the relationship between the students' home and school cultures. Language Minority Students in American Schools: An Education in English is intended for students who are preparing to become teachers of English as a second language, and for teachers of other subjects who work with English language learners.

Download or read book Linguistic Minority Students Go to College written by Yasuko Kanno and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-04-23 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently, linguistic minority students – students who speak a language other than English at home – represent 21% of the entire K-12 student population and 11% of the college student population. Bringing together emerging scholarship on the growing number of college-bound linguistic minority students in the K-12 pipeline, this ground-breaking volume showcases new research on these students’ preparation for, access to, and persistence in college. Other than studies of their linguistic challenges and writing and academic literacy skills in college, little is known about the broader issues of linguistic minority students’ access to and success in college. Examining a variety of factors and circumstances that influence the process and outcome, the scope of this book goes beyond students’ language proficiency and its impact on college education, to look at issues such as student race/ethnicity, gender, SES, and parental education and expectations. It also addresses structural factors in schooling including tracking, segregation of English learners from English-fluent peers, availability and support of institutional personnel, and collegiate student identity and campus climate. Presenting state-of-the-art knowledge and mapping out a future research agenda in an extremely important and yet understudied area of inquiry, this book advances knowledge in ways that will have a real impact on policy regarding linguistic minority immigrant students’ higher education opportunities.

This book was released on 1989 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication focuses on how bilingual education and English as a Second Language (ESL) teacher training programs can be enhanced in the areas of coordination, institutionalization, and evaluation and serves as a resource for institutions which train personnel to work with children who have limited English proficiency. The colloquium was designed to allow intensive small group interaction and whole group sharing; it sought to: (1) reflect the uniqueness of groups drawn together by the conference format; (2) present state-of-the-art practices in Educational Personnel Training Programs (EPTPs); and (3) suggest promising practices to future program directors and policymakers. The document is organized into three sections. The first section addresses coordination relevant to successful EPTP implementation with postsecondary institutions, state education agencies, local education agencies, and other Title VII and non-Title VII resources. Section two treats issues of institutionalization and discusses staff and faculty resources; inter- and intra-departmental coordination; recognition of student characteristics; student recruitment; budget planning; and cost assumption. The final section considers EPTP evaluation concerns wherein the group participants sought to develop a comprehensive framework for program assessment procedures. The agenda, participant data, and other conference information are appended. (LL)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The background, methodology, and results of the Children's English and Services Study, a national investigation of educational needs and services of language minority students of limited English proficiency, are reported. This volume provides information on educational needs and services for the target population, while an earlier volume reports that estimated numbers of limited English proficient students between the ages of 5 and 14. A test of English skills was constructed to establish limited English proficiency and criteria were formulated to define minimum acceptable services for language minority students. Characteristics of instruction for limited English proficient students, the proportion of the target population receiving bilingual or other special language services, the extent to which criteria were met by available services, and the unmet educational needs of language minority children are reported. Among the findings, it was concluded that (1) one third of all limited English proficient children are served by some form of special language instruction, (2) federal and state support is effectively targeted on those most in need, and (3) the types of bilingual education provided though government support do not focus on language maintenance. Included in the appendices are a discussion of survey design and data collection, the pupil survey questionnaire, and an executive summary of the first volume. (RW)
