    "title": "Addressing the Needs of 21st-Century Teachers Working With Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Learners",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Preparing mainstream classroom teachers to work with culturally and linguistically diverse learners is a growing concern in\neducation as more and more schools host increasing numbers of\nstudents whose primary language is not English. Unfortunately,\nsignificant numbers of teachers have had little preparation for\nworking with these diverse learners and feel ill equipped to support their academic development. This mixed-methods case study\nexplores the longitudinal impact of a professional-development\nprogram designed to increase teachers’ knowledge of second language acquisition and of appropriate instructional practices for\nsupporting English language learners (ELLs). Findings suggest\nthat participation in the program had a positive effect on participants’ knowledge of language and literacy acquisition, their ability\nto plan and manage instruction for ELLs, their understanding of\nappropriate assessment for ELLs, and their classroom practice. A\nyear later, though focal participants claimed maintenance, these\neffects were only marginally present in their classroom practice.",
