The Education of Language Minority Immigrants in the United States
draws from quantitative and qualitative research methodologies to
inform educational policy and practice. It is based on cutting-edge
research and policy analyses from a number of well-known experts on
immigrant language minority education in the USA. The collection
includes contributions on the acquisition of English, language
shift, the maintenance of heritage languages, prospects for
long-term educational achievement, how family background, economic
status, and gender and identity influence academic adjustment and
achievement, challenges for appropriate language testing and
placement, and examples of advocacy action research. It concludes
with a thoughtful commentary aimed at broadening our understanding
of the need to provide quality immigrant language minority
education within the context of globalization. This collection will
be of value to students and researchers interested in promoting
educational equity and achievement for immigrant language minority
students.
