English language learners (ELLs) often face the difficult challenge
of learning both a new language and new subject matter at the same
time. In Teaching English Language Learners Across the Content
Areas, Judie Haynes and Debbie Zacarian offer strategies, tools,
and tips that teachers can use to help ELLs at all levels flourish
in mainstream classrooms. This book will show teachers how to:
Determine their ELLs' stages of English language acquisition.
Modify assignments and assessments in different content areas for
ELLs at different stages of language development. Ensure that all
ELLs participate fully in lesson activities alongside their
English-fluent peers. Communicate effectively with parents and
guardians of students from diverse cultures. Real-life examples of
lessons from elementary, middle, and high school that have been
modified for ELLs in language arts, math, science, and social
studies classes show how to effectively put the authors'
recommendations into practice. A glossary of important ELL and ESL
terms is included as well, for those who are new to teaching ELLs.
Whether novice or veteran, all teachers of ELLs will benefit from
this wonderfully practical guide to ensuring that ELLs learn
English by learning content-and learn content while learning
English.
This edited volume expands on the existent research on anti-racist
educational leadership by identifying what type of capacity
building is needed for school administrators to facilitate
anti-racist change in their schools. Racial inequities in education
persist in part because the solutions that districts and schools
choose to employ largely ignore why and how institutional and
structural racism is the root cause of inequities in education.
Yet, racial inequities in schooling can be redressed if districts
and schools have leaders who are deeply committed to combatting
racism in their daily practice and structures of schooling. This
book underscores why we need more educational leaders who adopt an
anti-racist stance in how they lead and are prepared to work toward
racial justice and equity in a society so entrenched in racism.
Through diverse perspectives and voices, including scholars in the
field of educational leadership, sociologists of education, school
and district administrators, and grassroots community members and
activist groups, this book addresses issues related to anti-racist
educational leadership at various levels.

Quality accreditation in higher education institutions (HEIs) is
currently a buzzword. The need to maintain high-quality education
standards is a critical requirement for HEIs to remain competitive
in the market and for government and regulatory bodies to ensure
the quality standards of programs offered. From being an implicit
requirement that is internally addressed, quality assurance
activities become an explicit requirement that is regularly audited
and appraised by national and international accreditation agencies.
HEIs are voluntarily integrating quality management systems (QMS),
institutional and program-specific, in response to the political
and competitive environment in which it exists. Through its higher
education department or by creating non-profitable accreditation
bodies, many governments have implemented a quality framework for
licensing HEIs and invigilates its adherence based on which
accreditation statuses are granted for HEIs. Global Perspectives on
Quality Assurance and Accreditation in Higher Education
Institutions provides a comprehensive framework for HEIs to address
quality assurance and quality accreditation requirements and serves
as a practical tool to develop and deploy well-defined quality
management systems in higher education. The book focuses on the
critical aspects of quality assurance; the need to develop a
concise and agile vision, mission, values, and graduate attributes;
and to develop a system that effectively aligns the various
activities of the HEI to the attainment of the strategic priorities
listed in the institutional plans. The chapters each cover the
various facets of the quality assurance framework and accreditation
agencies' requirements with practical examples of each. This book
is useful for HEI administrators, quality assurance specialists in
HEIs, heads of academic departments, internal auditors, external
auditors, and other practitioners of quality, along with
stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and students interested in
quality assurance and accreditation in higher education.
