Download or read book English Language Learners in the Southeastern United States written by Ester J. de Jong and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-07-25 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the impact of and response to the rapidly growing English language learner (ELL) populations in the southeastern United States on K-16 schooling. Using examples of policy and practice from seven states (Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee), the book explores how the contemporary context of accountability regimes and neoliberal tenets affect educational responses to the increased linguistic and cultural diversity in schools and how these realities may be different from when traditional states (such as California or Florida) were developing their responses to (im)migration. The collection of chapters addresses key questions of teacher preparation, effective infrastructures, and frameworks for serving ELLs, dual language bilingual education, and advocacy efforts at the state, district, and local level in the Southeast. The authors describe promising practices in each state, but also note the need for more systemic, statewide approaches that resist the enduring monolingual discourse that has historically characterized much of ELL schooling. They call for transformative policies and practices that take current research into account and that stress the centrality of pluralistic principles to design effective schools for ELLs.
Download or read book Feasting Dragon Starving Eagle written by Peter G. de Krassel and published by CAL Books. This book was released on 2011-01-19 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of how America, through its misguided and bankrupt economic, financial and foreign policies and alliances, has allowed China and its citizens to prosper at the expense and suffering of Americans, who are picking up most of the global economic rehabilitation tab. The ongoing domestic, foreign, economic and geopolitical policy failures of career politicians in Washington, D.C., financed by their Wall Street backers and executed by their politically connected, incompetent bureaucrats charged with implementing the congressional and presidential non-starters are graphically analyzed and described. Americas career politicians and corporate titans are blamed directly for their stupid and misguided policies. While America has spent more than $10 billion to $15 billion a month for five years on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and continues to do so China has spent the same amount of money on education, developing new technologies and building state-of-the-art infrastructure relevant to the 21st century. It doesnt take much to figure out which country made the better investment. The 2008 Beijing Olympics, where China won more gold medals than the U.S., are a reaction on how China has raised its game in the daily global competition for economic, political and sports supremacy, not military. China is not a military threat to America. China and America differ in their geopolitical and domestic approach and how each countrys soldiers must serve their citizens. Two visually poignant pictures of which country uses its armed forces more productively are the images of the Peoples Liberation Army helping the victims of the devastating Sichuan earthquake in 2008, and removing the masses of algae from a beach in Qingdao, where the Olympic sailing events took place. What a contrast to America scrambling to find emergency personnel to help out in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. America is now playing catch-up with its economic stimulus package in an effort to continue to be a relevant global inter-local power. America and China can continue to learn from each other as their people and economies become more intertwined. Both countries must join hands to lead the world through climate, economic and political change in the 21st century as true political partners to ensure that the world avoids Armageddon.

Download or read book Language Program Vitality in the United States written by Emily Heidrich Uebel and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-11 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The perception of a permanent enrollment crisis in US postsecondary foreign language education has shaped our profession’s image for an entire generation of educators. Over the past 30 years, this crisis rarely invited self-examination or inspired creativity. Instead, it was routinely attributed to external factors: shrinking budgets, unsympathetic administrators, disengaged students. This volume is refreshingly optimistic: After providing a nuanced picture of the complex enrollment situation and focusing on perceptions of language education among undergraduate students, the volume features an inspiring panorama of successful models that revitalized language programs at a wide range of institutions. The diversity of approaches to post-secondary language education in the United States featured in this volume highlights that there are no simple “one size fits all” solutions. To be transformational, initiatives need to be intimately calibrated to the evolving needs and desires of our institutions’ most important stakeholder: the student.

Download or read book The Bibliophile written by Richard Ilnicki and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2014-05-22 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a father does everything in his power to live his life vicariously through his son’s life, the result is abject failure. Not only for the father but for the son. The Bibliophile is the story of a providential paradigm shift in thinking that produces an unbreachable divide between a zealous, overly ambitious, success driven, obnoxious, father and a compliant obsequious son. The story is written over time beginning with the great grandfather, a mysterious bibliophile in his own right, up to the Son Of Promise, God’s next All American, and his slave driving “Winning Is The Only Thing” father. Due to an injury that curtailed the father’s potential career in the NFL the father lives for one reason: to see to it that ‘at almost any cost’ his son will have a career as a professional football player. Unfortunately a “Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Super Bowl” and the result is a supernatural event that produces devastating consequences.
