Appropriate assessment and placement of ELLs is the most basic of all instructional processes. Without this, we cannot be sure we can measure student progress or address individual instructional needs.' -Margarita Calderon, Research Scientist Center for Data-Driven Reform, Johns Hopkins University 'Here, finally, we have a text that empowers teachers by giving them practical strategies for harnessing assessments of language and content in ways that benefit their teaching and their students' learning.' -Timothy Boals, WIDA Consortium Director, Wisconsin Dept. of Public Instruction 'Assessing English Language Learners includes a multitude of evaluation instruments that readers can use as they assess their students. Margo Gottlieb helps teachers adjust assessment to different language proficiency levels and then evaluate language proficiency and content learning appropriately.' -David E. Freeman, Yvonne S.Freeman, Professors, Curriculum and Instruction, University of Texas, Brownsville Discover how to bridge the gap between equitably assessing linguistic and academic performance!
