Approximately 4.7 million designated English language learners attend public schools (Office of English Language Acquisition, 2002). It is predicted that by the 2030s, English language learners will account for about 40 percent of the school-age population. Yet very few teachers have been trained to address the needs of these students, and the questions they ask are the same as they asked decades ago: Who are English language learners and what are effective ways for schooling them? What kind of educational program brings about the best results? What are sound practices for facilitating English language acquisition? How can English language learners have academic success in subject areas? How do we teach English language learners in our classrooms? - p. 5.

In the USA, the number of college students with limited English proficiency is increasing. Even after successfully completing a course of English as a second language, many face both linguistic and cultural barriers in mainstream classes. This book focuses on both the theory and practice of assisting such students, especially in the sciences. As the number of non-native English speaking students increases at colleges and universities, innovative approaches are needed to successfully educate this population and how science is taught may be crucial. Instruction in the students' native language may become increasingly important in attracting and retaining non-native English speakers in college. This book is aimed primarily at staff who teach science to LEP undergraduates, but others who should be interested include staff involved with postgraduate students and high school science teachers.

"Language Policies and Educational Practices" explores the critical role of language policies in education systems. Language is a fundamental tool for communication, shaping our thoughts and interactions. This book examines how language policies determine the medium of instruction at various educational levels, focusing on the practicalities and challenges of these policies. We highlight the importance of local languages in contributing to a country's social, political, and economic development, emphasizing their vital role in education. Using case studies, we analyze how local language policies are implemented by teachers, the challenges they face, and practical solutions to these challenges. The book also discusses the need for refresher courses for teachers and training for translators. From the 1960s, the federal government encouraged and sometimes mandated the use of non-English languages in education. This book covers significant legislative milestones, such as the Bilingual Education Act of 1968, the Native American Languages Act of 1990, and other federal programs promoting language diversity and literacy.

This guide, designed for regular classroom teachers in whose mainstream classes language-minority children are enrolled, offers background information and suggestions for helping these students become proficient in English reading and writing and for involving them as resources for global and cultural awareness in majority-language classmates. The first chapter discusses specific barriers to language acquisition among language-minority students: (1) reductionist concepts of language and learning implicit in the mainstream curriculum; (2) cultural differences; and (3) inadequate communication among adults in the children's lives. The second chapter examines the reading and writing needs of this population, including instructional materials, classroom environment, topics, and nonverbal communication. The third chapter describes useful classroom techniques, all within the whole-language approach to teaching, including: using literary works; providing substantial oral language experiences; providing time for silent, sustained reading; encouraging use of student journals; incorporating technology; and promoting cooperative learning. It is concluded that meeting the needs of language-minority students in a mainstream classroom is possible if teachers recognize the barriers to educational opportunity facing the children, understand that they are better prepared than they realize to work with this population, use cooperative learning strategies, and see the children as cultural resources.
