Based on an ongoing initiative begun in 2012 by a team at Boston College, the book shows how these schools transformed to better serve their diverse, multilingual communities by adopting a two-way immersion model with the help of local faculty and other experts in bilingual education serving as mentors. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eCulturally and Linguistically Responsive Education\u003c\/i\u003e describes the founding of the network, the theory of action that drove its design, and the compelling evidence linking the networked approach to subsequent growth in student achievement and enrollment at the schools. Chapters written by the network's mentors examine in detail six practices that were key to driving the schools' transformation, including critical conversations, fidelity assurances to the two-way immersion model, coordinated professional development, teacher reflection cycles, family engagement, and distributive leadership. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe editors draw key lessons from this network for other leaders and argue for increased attention to culturally and linguistically responsive schooling that builds on students' sociocultural competence, cultivates an appreciation and proficiency in multiple languages, and promotes high levels of academic achievement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martin Scanlan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1682533999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781682533994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harvard Education PR\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2020","brand":"Martin Scanlan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48136856568063,"sku":"9781682533994","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_71fe4621-7e1d-42d9-9a63-ec7412af0262.jpg?v=1770164930","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/culturally-and-linguistically-responsive-education-martin-scanlan-9781682533994","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
