In an era of accountability and increased demand of literacy
competency, this book provides examples of how teacher educators
and teachers have come together to learn from each other and from
English learners. The chapters in this book follow a teacher
learning framework that highlights joint work, features inquiry
into practice and integrates disciplinary content knowledge with
culturally and linguistically responsive teaching. While the
chapters feature different venues for teacher learning, they all
depict the process of teachers and teacher educators striving to
integrate English learner instruction into mainstream teacher
education. This book will be a resource for faculty in teacher
education programs and for administrative personnel in school
districts to illustrate the process of building authentic
collaborations that can improve teacher learning and understanding
about English learner instruction.

1948: The Crossroads Year by James F. Nagle is a fascinating
exploration of how 1948 forever changed America-and why. The
turning point in the struggle between Western democracy and Eastern
absolutism as symbolized by the Soviet Union, 1948 changed the way
the world worked and the way America thought. As the nation
grappled with a post war environment, its people began to question
their role in this new society and the path on which America now
seemed headed. There was a huge migration of black people from the
South. Easterners set their sights on the sunnier climes of
California. Suddenly, apartment dwelling gave rise to a new
phenomenon of suburbia. This was also the year that Israel was
created and the first Arab-Israeli war was fought. From the Truman
Doctrine to the popularization of television, Nagle investigates
how one unique year has impacted our society right into our present
day. Written in sparkling prose, Nagle brings a you-are-there
perspective as he explores how and why Americans decided which
bridges to build in their new lives-and which ones they should
burn. A perfect book for history aficionados or baby boomers, 1948:
The Crossroads Year is a portrait of the way we were-and how we
became who we are.
