-Most notable American policy: executive order 13166 (vague so there's no compliance)
-Anglicization is higher than ever; nationalism served to discourage ethnic division which created language differences
-Belief systems come from social practice (folk linguistics, family legends, conventional wisdom, political principles, ethnic paranoia)
-Melting pot: assimilation, anglo-conformity, no mutual respect
-Salad bowl: blend together without losing individual flavors
-Ethnocentrism: one's own group as standard while judging others
-Individual bilingualism deemed good, while group bilingualism is bad
-We tolerate English speakers failure to learn other languages, but expect immigrants to know English fluently
- Language attitudes reflect social attitudes, linguistic assimilation is an "easy" solution to diversity]]> 2020-10-06 02:28:25 UTC https://padlet.com/barchambo08/agwxxqwjvohpnsbe/wish/805333808 barchambo08 https://padlet.com/barchambo08/agwxxqwjvohpnsbe/wish/805352854 -*Debates are generally less about language and more about social/political conflict)
-Cultural pluralism: unity-in-diversity
-Example: The Amish still maintaining the use of German
-Efforts to restrict the use of other languages is viewed as bigotry
-2-way bilingual education is valued more than ever
-Heritage-language programs are designed to help regain native tongue
-Policy formation is flawed because of hasty decisions
-"One size fits all" decisions, ineffective 
-With direct democracy, minority voices are drowned out, eliminating the need for compromise
-Advocacy yields policymaking*
-Delimit the ways we talk about language and language issues 
-Language as a problem: complications are from diversity
-Language as a right: equal access as a minority
-Language as a resource: cultural capital 
-Subtractive and Additive Bilingualism 
-With language as a resource, there's empowerment and collaborative relations of power
-Group rights: not ethnic entitlement, but equal opportunity ]]> 2020-10-06 02:38:57 UTC https://padlet.com/barchambo08/agwxxqwjvohpnsbe/wish/805352854 barchambo08 https://padlet.com/barchambo08/agwxxqwjvohpnsbe/wish/805368541 -Children respect elders

-Technological advancement have resulted in more frequent use of technology in the classroom, so teachers need to have knowledge on how to implement these things
-accessibility: access information in order to become consumers and producers of knowledge
-retrievability: easy to retrieve knowledge and redraw upon it
-interactivity: interactions among students, as well as interactions among a student and a particular online tool 
creativity: technology provides a platform for creativity in various forms for student learning
-when assessing emergent bilinguals it is vital that the discrepancy between language knowledge and content is recognized
-ensure tests are valid and reliable
-general linguistic/language specific: ability of students to use any language features to accomplish language/content specific tasks; ability to only use standard features that correspond to language demands 
-Performance based assessments 
-criterion referenced assessments versus norm-referenced assessments; criterion: compared to specific knowledge body; norm: measured against other student's scores
-Language and education policy: no federal educational policies for emergent bilinguals before 1968
-mainstream classrooms: need practical ways to assess english-language learners, they can then evaluate the progress of students and plan for more effective literacy instruction
-assessment of ELLs: collect and document evidence to make informed decisions 
-Learn about backgrounds and predictability logs ]]> 2020-10-27 12:33:48 UTC https://padlet.com/barchambo08/agwxxqwjvohpnsbe/wish/865374812 barchambo08 https://padlet.com/barchambo08/agwxxqwjvohpnsbe/wish/910916191 -Listeners (most frequently used) and readers must actively construct the meaning of any language (facial expressions, tone, gestures, topic knowledge, setting, etc.)
-Many challengers for emergent bilinguals: english speakers words blend together, occasional incomplete sentences, oral language is invisible, unwritten cultural norms, speaking more difficult than writing
-Little classroom time devoted to EBLs developing oral language
-CREDE (Center for Research on Education, Diversity, and Excellence Report (CREDE): very little research on CI, takes years for EBLs to develop oral proficiency 
-National Literacy Panel Report Research: oral language skills strongly associated w reading comprehension, oral comprehension important for large amounts of text (vs. word level knowledge), EBLs need consistent ESL instruction, home language literacy skills and oral skills associated with reading comprehension skills
-National Academics Report Research: consistent with CREDE and NLP findings, instructional practices
-Theory when making decisions: holistic biliteracy program, silent period and wait time, teacher talk, correcting student speech errors, productive talk moves
-Assessing listening and speaking: talk with them and listen, tasks that require oral language use

-norm-referenced and criterion-referenced 
-reliability, validity, and bias
-Bias towards EBLs in assessment, pressure on EBLs to learn English in limited time-span 
-EBLs are expected to learn to listen, read, speak, and write English at the same time they are expected to meet grade-level academic content standards 
-Assessment for EBLS often tests their English language knowledge not their knowledge of content
-Instruction needs to be specially designed so that students can learn academic content as well as develop English proficiency
-Differentiate between content-area instruction for each learner, recognize differences]]> 2020-11-18 04:25:19 UTC https://padlet.com/barchambo08/agwxxqwjvohpnsbe/wish/934975462
