Meeting the Literacy Development Needs of Adolescent English Language Learners Through Content Area Learning Part One: Focus on Motivation and Engagement
 This research paper highlights the overlap in recommended practices from two emerging areas of educational research: academic literacy development of adolescents, and English language learners in secondary schools. With increasing numbers of ELLs attending secondary schools across the country, more content-area teachers are responsible for teaching them, whether or not they have been trained in best practices with ELLs. The research suggests that teacher professional development that focuses on promising practices for adolescents with academic literacy tasks will provide some of the training that content-area secondary school teachers need in order to productively support the academic literacy development of their ELL students. This publication was developed in partnership with the Center for Resource Management. | |
