| Abstract | This technical report is from a study that assessed effective content-English-as-a-Second-Language (content-ESL) programs across the United States, from pre-kindergarten through grade 12. The study was undertaken to develop a descriptive analysis of the nature and scope of these programs and the relationship between program policies and practices and background notions of content-language integration. The technical report covers data collected from database searching, mail and telephone surveys, and 20 site visits at representative programs. Issues and findings addressed students, teachers, program duration, purposes, resources used, program and student evaluation and assessment measures, and interaction with native English speakers. The report is divided into the following sections: background summary; methodology; results and discussion; and implications and recommendations. Findings include: the primary home language of most participants was Spanish; most participants were members of low income groups; requirements varied by State; most teachers had received special training and taught regular classes; in most programs there is no English proficiency requirement; and there was some English-language peer interaction. Appendixes include scripts of surveys, State regulations and credentialing practices, key variables operationalization, sample letters, and details on the data base development. (Contains 10 pages of references as well as numerous tables and figures.) (NAV) |
