Preventing Long-Term ELs

Autor Margarita Espino Calderón, Liliana Minaya-Rowe
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 oct 2010
After decades of experimentation with teaching language minority students, we are still confronted with an achievement gap between these students and their White Anglo counterparts that refuses to close. This gap widens, as students get older. This book is designed to help leadership teams at the school, district, and state levels to develop, implement and evaluate effective programmes for ELLs and all other students. Grounded in the author's extensive research on professional development and effective ELL instruction, the authors describe how professional development programmes integrate language, literacy, and subject matter for better results.

Recenzii

"This book offers invaluable resources for teachers and administrators taking a proactive approach in transforming the academic success of long-term English learners."
"This book encapsulates a serious call to action: challenging leaders and educators through bold, yet eminently practical pathways toward high-quality, evidence-based systematic instruction."
"From classroom to boardroom and teacher to superintendent, this book provides the framework to ensure the academic success of ELs and the renewal of the educational organization itself in its mission to meet the academic needs of all students."

With a Title III National Professional Development grant, she implemented "A Whole-School Approach to Professional Development with ExC-ELL" in Loudoun County, VA. She replicated this approach in 29 schools in TX and NC. She served on the National Literacy Panel for Language Minority Children and Youth, the Carnegie Corporation of New York Panel on English Language Adolescent Literacy Panel, among other panels and national committees.
