Inhaltsangabe

Ten contributors from Arizona and Texas address a paradigm shift in bilingual education: research studies since the 1980s applying cognitive psychology to bilingual issues, which serve as a more solid foundation for second language instruction, assessment, and placement decisions. Themes across chapters include the need to understand that language development occurs within a particular sociocultural environment and to take into account that cultural system and the evaluator's in developing assessment instruments.
