Thirty-three American academics and researchers in bilingual education contribute 13 chapters presenting new research on the impact of English-only policies on English learner (EL) students and their teachers in the US. The majority of the contributors are based in California, Arizona, and Massachusetts--three states that have passed language policies in the past decade seriously restricting the use of bilingual instruction. The text contains reports of recent empirical studies examining new and never-before-analyzed national and state-level data, which suggest that English-only policies not only fail to deliver on their promises but also may actually be creating new educational and social inequalities. The text also examines effective alternative instructional strategies for EL students and outlines potential legal options to address the educational needs of EL learners. For teachers, teacher educators, researchers, school administrators, policy makers, and social activists. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
