Book Description: "Given the number of English learners already in our schools and the rate at which this population is growing, effectively educating language-minority students is one of the greatest challenges schools face. In this lucid, concise, and reader-friendly review of research, the authors present the information needed to create the strongest possible instructional programs." —Michael F. Graves, Professor of Literacy Education, Emeritus University of Minnesota "The authors have done an exceptionally good job of capturing the major trends, differing perspectives, and many challenges in schooling English language learners while putting forth a vision for the immediate future that is solidly grounded in research and in current and evolving knowledge." —Liliana Minaya-Rowe, Associate Researcher Center for Data-Driven Reform Johns Hopkins University "A must-read for administrators, program developers, policy makers, and educators who make decisions about English language learners.
