This book was released on 2013 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present research compared the outcomes of Dual Language and Traditional Bilingual approaches on the acquisition of English, and the development of first language literacy for second language learners. The design used a two-way mixed factor analysis of variance, with groups (Dual Language and Transitional Bilingual) as the between subjects factor, and time of testing (pretest and posttest) as the within-subjects factor. The dependent variables included student performance on the ECLAS (an English proficiency assessment) and on EL SOL (a Spanish proficiency assessment. A one-way comparison between groups using scores from the NYSESLAT exam was conducted along with a descriptive analysis of NYSESLAT scores. Results of the study revealed an increase in language acquisition and oral literacy skills in English for both groups. The findings also indicated there was growth in most domains of native language oral and literacy skills. The outcomes further suggested that the Dual Language approach was more effective than Transitional Bilingual Education in the attainment of English proficiency for second language learners.

Book excerpt: Principals today are expected to lead and create a learning environment that is conducive for all learners. Many educational leaders, however, lack the minimum foundational skills necessary regarding second language acquisition to be able to implement the appropriate bilingual program that will allow English Language Learners (ELLs) to learn English at a level comparable to their native English speaking peers (Brookings Institution & Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, 2012). A plethora of research literature exists regarding positive and negative aspects of bilingual programs. The intent of this study was to provide guidance to elementary school leaders when implementing a bilingual program at their school campus. In this quantitative study, reading results from the current state-mandated assessment, the State of Texas Assessment of Academic Readiness (STAAR), were analyzed to compare 30 transitional early exit program elementary schools with 30 dual language one-way program elementary schools in two Texas large urban school districts. Also analyzed were the Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS) Reading scores between early exit program elementary schools with dual language one-way program elementary schools across the State of Texas. Data were requested and obtained from the Texas Education Agency Public Education Information Management System for the 2013-2014 and the 2014-2015 school years for Grade 3 students. Statistical analyses on the STAAR Reading test scores yielded mixed results. In the 2013-2014 school year, ELLs had better STAAR Reading test scores in the early exit transitional program than in the one-way bilingual education program; however, higher percentages of English Language Learners in the one-way dual language program met the performance standards. In the 2014-2015 school year, the STAAR Reading test scores and performance standard percentages were higher for ELLs in the one-way bilingual education program. Results on the TELPAS exam were consistent for both school years in that ELLs who were enrolled in an early exit transitional bilingual education program had higher TELPAS ratings and higher TELPAS scores than their counterparts who were enrolled in a one-way dual language bilingual education program. Based upon the results of the STAAR and the TELPAS statistical analyses, information is provided to school leaders regarding a comparison of ELL student performance in transitional early exit programs with dual language one-way bilingual education programs.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the academic performance of third grade English Language Learners (ELLs) in dual language classes to third grade students who received ENL instruction only and to third grade students in bilingual education programs on the New York State (NYS) Standardized ELA and Math assessments. Additionally, the academic performance of third grade English Proficient (EP) who have attended a dual language program with performance of EP students educated in regular monolingual classroom was compared. A sample of 72 ELL students and a group of 57 EP students were compared. The results revealed significantly higher academic performance on ELA and Math assessment among ELL and EP students participating in dual language classes over their peers educated in different setting. The current study revealed the importance of educating ELL and EP students in dual language setting and its benefits.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With increasing demands imposed by state standards for students to show proficiency at high levels in reading and writing, instruction for the English language learner is critical. Dual language programs address English proficiency through instruction that first helps the ELL become proficient in a native language while simultaneously teaching English. Leaders responsible for supporting instructional programs that best achieve this goal will find it imperative to understand how and if dual language programs can be effective. This study examined three years of 5th grade reading TAKS results between the years 2009-2011 to compare the performance of students in a dual language program to students in a transitional bilingual program. Results showed that dual language students performed better than those in the transitional program. The study aimed to provide leaders with data to continue dialogue about how to improve the performance of a critical demographic group in schools today.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the study is to compare two bilingual program models on the same campus, a late-exit transitional bilingual program and a dual langue two-way immersion program, by examining the English listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills of English language learners (ELLs) participating in the programs during the 2010-2011 academic year. The Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS) Reading, the Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS) Composite, and the Language Assessment Scales Links (LAS Links) were used to compare the developing English language proficiency the students for the 2010-2011 academic year. The measures were correlated to determine a relationship. The results found no significant differences between the programs, although fifth grade was marginally significant with regard to oral language. A positive strong correlation was found at all grade levels for TELPAS Reading and LAS Links, indicating that students who perform well in English oral language skills are likely to perform well on reading comprehension.

This book was released on 2019-05-13 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive and interdisciplinary examination of dual language education for Latina/o English language learners (ELLs) in the United States, with a particular focus on the state of Texas and the U.S.-Mexico border. The book is broken into three parts. Part I examines how Latina/o ELLs have been historically underserved in public schools and how this has contributed to numerous educational inequities. Part II examines bilingualism, biliteracy, and dual language education as an effective model for addressing the inequities identified in Part I. Part III examines research on dual language education in a large urban school district, a high-performing elementary school that serves a high proportion of ELLs along the Texas-Mexico border, and best practices for principals and teachers. This volume explores the potential and realities of dual language education from a historical and social justice lens. Most importantly, the book shows how successful programs and schools need to address and align many related aspects in order to best serve emergent bilingual Latino/as: from preparing teachers and administrators, to understanding assessment and the impacts of financial inequities on bilingual learners.
