Today's public schools are increasingly
characterized by cultural and linguistic diversity. Studies show that
about 4.4 million students nationwide lack the English skills needed to
succeed academically. To help second language learners keep up in the
classroom, educators must understand the challenges that bilingual
students and schools face.
In
this concise guide, former bilingual teacher Judith Lessow-Hurley dives
right into the language debate swirling in school systems large and
small. She examines the popular myths about educating students in a
multilinquistic society and introduces the key issues:
* The demographics of second language learners
* The theory underlying language instruction
* Desirable qualifications for bilingual teachers
* Effective teaching methods and programs
* Language and politics
* Language and the law
By
confronting common beliefs about English-only and immersion programs,
basic interpersonal communication skills, the influence of culture on
language, and more, Lessow-Hurley reveals how schools can successfully
educate students from diverse backgrounds--without unintended
prejudice. Her passionate and intelligent response in the language
debate views every school as the bridge between cultures, helping all
students develop academically and equally.
Only a few hundred schools across the United States have research
programs. Although some of the schools with programs are magnet schools
or highly advantaged schools, many ordinary schools have successful
programs. Every school is capable of at least a modest program for
those students who want to work on independent research projects.This
practical book provides a school district with a comprehensive guide on
how to establish an independent research program. Use this book as your
step-by -step guide to creating an independent research program and
preparing your students to enter the national independent research
competitions. Although the curriculum described in this book is based
on the objectives of various national competitions, the students are
not in a competitive classroom environment. Instead, the competition
rules are used to create a working atmosphere that resembles the
professional world.
Krieger takes you from selling the idea of the program to educators,
students, and the community through critical curriculum and methodology
for the teacher, to finally entering national research competitions and
continuing your program.
For years many parents and teachers have known that there was something wrong in the schools but often couldn't put a finger on it. Starting with receiving an invasive questionnaire brought home by her young son, Charlotte started a search which has culminated in one of the most amazing books. The book is attractively laid out and invites readers to discover what has been happening to American education for the past 100 years -- all with quotes from those "change agents" who deliberately set out to have schools changed from individual excellence in becoming educated to groups being trained to think alike.
The bodysnatching trade flourished from the early 18th to the early 19th century. Digging up newly buried corpses from graveyards satisfied the needs of anatomy schools, and for a while it was almost legal...
