  the students are reading their exams in spanish: SYSTEMATIC INSTRUCTION IN READING FOR SPANISH-SPEAKING STUDENTS Elva Duran, 2013-04-01 Students whose first language is not English are the fastest-growing group in public schools in all regions of the United States. Almost 10 million children between the ages of five and 17 live in the homes and communities in which a language other than English in spoken and presently most schools in the U.S. are under-educating many English learners. The achievement of Hispanic students needs to improve dramatically over the next five years and this book describes the cornerstone elements for bringing about this change. The initial chapter introduces direct instruction to be used with reading and literacy programs. Chapters 2 and 3 provide excellent review of the literature in language development and address developing language instruction, listening, and speaking with Spanish-speaking students and offers what a comprehensive language development program should look like. Chapter 4 reviews academic language and literacy instruction while the next addresses the components of instruction in Spanish. Chapter 6 offers lesson plan suggestions for Spanish-speaking students, while the following two sections discuss components that transfer and do not transfer in Spanish to English reading instruction. Chapter 9 reviews English language development and provides lesson plans for implementing SDAIE programs. Finally, Chapter 10 discusses two-way bilingual immersion and shares actual classroom schedules and lessons. This unique text will help in the preparation of primary grade teachers throughout the U.S. so that they may be successful with Hispanic students entering the public schools with little or no English background. It will also be a useful tool for school districts’ staff development in addressing school improvement goals for increasing the achievement of Hispanic students.

  the students are reading their exams in spanish: Profiling plurilingual education Josep M. Cots, 2023-05-25 Aquest volum és el resultat d’un projecte desenvolupat per la xarxa d’investigació Educación Plurilingüe (EDUPLUS) i finançat pel Ministeri de Ciència, Innovació i Universitats (RED2018-102774-T). La finalitat d’EDUPLUS és reforçar els vincles entre un total de sis equips de recerca de diferents universitats i comunitats autònomes d’Espanya, tots coneguts pel seu treball per establir una base científica sòlida per a la promoció de l’educació plurilingüe. El projecte es pot veure com una resposta a la necessitat de coordinar esforços de recerca per tal d’aconseguir una millor comprensió del procés d’aprenentatge simultani de tres (o més llengües) i el desenvolupament de models d’ensenyament basats en la noció de “competència plurilingüe”. La resposta d’EDUPLUS ha consistit en proposar un marc de recollida i anàlisi de dades que permetés un cert grau d’homogeneïtat pel que fa a les dades a recollir en els diferents sistemes educatius. Això permetria adoptar un enfocament comparatiu dels processos i dels productes de l’educació plurilingüe. El marc inclou tres nivells d’anàlisi: la comunitat autònoma, l’escola i l’aula.

  the students are reading their exams in spanish: Research Informing Practice - Practice Informing Research David Schwarzer, Mary Petrón, Christopher Luke, 2011-04-01 “Research Informing Practice—Practice Informing Research: Innovative Teaching Methodologies for World Language Educators” is an edited volume that focuses on innovative, nontraditional methods of teaching and learning world languages. Using teacher-research projects, each author in the volume guides readers through their own personal journey and exploration of teaching methods, novelty, risk-taking, and reflection. Chapters include guiding questions, vignettes, and thick descriptions of classroom-based research in an assortment of instructional settings. Theoretical issues and an array of practical applications are presented, as well as additional research opportunities and guidelines for implementation in a variety of teaching and learning venues. While not professing to be a panacea for world language learning, this book provides various lines of theory, research, and practice as they interact with each other through teacher-research narratives. As a well-known African proverb asserts, “It takes a village to raise a child.” Similarly, it takes a village to develop a master teacher, and it takes a community to create an exceptional classroom. Throughout this volume, authors share their voices, experiences, and expertise as a means of strengthening the village. They then invite readers to embark on their own methodological journeys. The text thus serves as a stimulus for further discussion and pedagogical development in world language settings. Teachers and researchers are challenged to think critically and reflectively about world language education, encouraged to design innovative methods, approaches, and techniques for their world language classes, and ultimately asked to share their findings with students, parents, peers, communities, and the village.

  the students are reading their exams in spanish: Research Anthology on Bilingual and Multilingual Education Management Association, Information Resources, 2021-10-29 Given the boost in global immigration and migration, as well as the emphasis on creating inclusive classrooms, research is turning to the challenges that teachers face with the increasing need for bilingual and multilingual education.

  the students are reading their exams in spanish: Understanding International Students from Asia in American Universities Yingyi Ma, Martha A. Garcia-Murillo, 2017-10-20 This book is about international students from Asia studying at American universities in the age of globalization. It explores significant questions, such as: Why do they want to study in America? How do they make their college choices? To what extent do they integrate with domestic students, and what are the barriers for intergroup friendship? How do faculty and administrators at American institutions respond to changing campus and classroom dynamics with a growing student body from Asia? Have we provided them with the skills they need to succeed professionally? As they are preparing to become the educational, managerial and entrepreneurial elites of the world, do Asian international students plan to stay in the U.S. or return to their home country? Asian students constitute over 70 percent of all international students. Almost every major American university now faces unprecedented enrollment growth from Asian students. However, American universities rarely consider if they truly understand the experiences and needs of these students. This book argues that American universities need to learn about their Asian international students to be able to learn from them. It challenges the traditional framework that emphasizes adjustment and adaptation on the part of international students. It argues for the urgency to shift from this framework to the one calling for proactive institutional efforts to bring about successful experiences of international students.
  the students are reading their exams in spanish: Exam Literacy Jake Hunton, 2018-08-13 In Exam Literacy: A guide to doing what works (and not what doesn't) to better prepare students for exams, Jake Hunton focuses on the latest cognitive research into revision techniques and delivers proven strategies which actually work. Foreword by Professor John Dunlosky. 'Read, highlight, reread, repeat if such a revision cycle sounds all too wearily familiar, you and your students need a better route to exam success. And in light of the recent decision to make all subjects at GCSE linear, so that students will be tested in one-off sittings, it will be even more important that students are well equipped to acquire and recall key content ahead of their exams. In this wide-ranging guide to effective exam preparation, Jake Hunton casts a careful eye over a wide range of research into revision techniques and details the strategies which have been proven to deliver the best results. With plenty of practical suggestions and subject-specific examples, Exam Literacy provides teachers with user-friendly advice on how they can make the content they cover stick, and shares up-to-date, evidence-based information on: - The nature of learning and the various types of memory. - How to improve students' retention of knowledge and recall of content. - Why popular revision techniques, such as rereading, highlighting and summarising,may not be as effective as you think. - How revision strategies that have been identified as being more effective such as interleaving, elaborative interrogation, self-explanation and retrieval practice can be embedded into day-to-day teaching. - How students can be encouraged to make use of these winning strategies when revising independently.

  the students are reading their exams in spanish: Language Policies and (Dis)Citizenship Vaidehi Ramanathan, 2013-08-07 This volume explores the concept of 'citizenship', and argues that it should be understood both as a process of becoming and the ability to participate fully, rather than as a status that can be inherited, acquired, or achieved. From a courtroom in Bulawayo to a nursery in Birmingham, the authors use local contexts to foreground how the vulnerable, particularly those from minority language backgrounds, continue to be excluded, whilst offering a powerful demonstration of the potential for change offered by individual agency, resistance and struggle. In addressing questions such as 'under what local conditions does dis-citizenship happen?'; 'what role do language policies and pedagogic practices play?' and 'what kinds of margins and borders keep humans from fully participating'? The chapters in this volume shift the debate away from visas and passports to more uncertain and contested spaces of interpretation.
