ERIC/CLL Resource Guides Online English Language Learners with Special Needs Sally Morrison, ERIC Clearinghouse on Languages and Linguistics Introduction ERIC Digests Journals Other Publications ... ERIC Documents Introduction Several factors influence the identification of English language learners with special needs. Limited prior schooling, lack of proficiency in English, native language background, cultural expectations, and personal or family concerns can all influence a learner’s academic progress. It can be difficult to distinguish between a learning disability and learning problems caused by a variety of other factors. English language learners whose difficulties in school stem from these factors may be misidentified as having a learning disability. In other cases, English language learners who have a learning disability may not be properly identified on the assumption that their learning problems stem from linguistic and cultural differences. To further complicate matters, special needs may not have been identified in the learner's native language but may become evident as the student is learning English. Identification Traditional identification instruments designed for English speakers may not be valid with English language learners. Identification of English language learners with special needs should include consideration of the following factors:

@import "/styles/ns4_toxins.css"; Advanced Search Help Terrorism North Korea ... El Cato Reforms Crucial to Special Education by Marie Gryphon June 14, 2002 Marie Gryphon is a policy analyst with the Cato Institute's Center for Educational Freedom. The Washington Education Association recently released a survey revealing that two-thirds of the state's special education teachers plan to quit over the next five years. Teachers of special needs children cited excessive paperwork and too many meetings as leading reasons for their decision to hit the road, exacerbating a serious existing shortage of qualified personnel. Predictably, the WEA used these results to call for two favorite union remedies, higher pay and smaller class sizes. Union President Charles Hasse said the survey confirms "a compensation and workload crisis among special ed staff." In fact, Washington's teachers and students would benefit most from a rarer prescription - fundamental reform. Washington is held hostage to a federal statute that governs nearly every aspect of special education. Passed in 1975, the Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act (IDEA) mandates a complex series of meetings, paperwork, notice requirements and legalistic due process procedures for developing each disabled child's educational plan. While IDEA played a positive role in opening the doors of public schools to disabled children, the statute is a disaster when it comes to the thing parents need most: peaceful, efficient provision of high-quality educational services.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2000 One mold charters can't break By Marjorie Coeyman Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor NEW YORK The United Charter School is designed to serve 1,200 children in a low-income neighborhood in Baton Rouge, La. It is widely supported by area residents, who are almost entirely African-American. It's in compliance with the Louisiana state charter law. STAYING FOCUSED: First-graders keep pencils moving at Philadelphia's Harambee Institute for Science and Technology. Public charter schools like this one provide an alternative to regular public schools, but some are starting to face charges that they don't meet federal civil rights rules. MELANIE STETSON FREEMAN - STAFF/FILE Yet the school's doors remain shut. The reason: United Charter runs afoul of a federal desegregation order requiring a racial balance in the parish's public schools. The US Department of Justice argues that the school will not attract enough white students. The case has created a situation some call absurd. "You won't find 10 people in this parish, black or white, who are in agreement with what's being done," says Jim Geiser, one of United's organizers. The United Charter imbroglio is just one facet of a larger problem of regulatory conflict. Charter schools are given great latitude on regulation in exchange for results. But the need to comply with often-costly federal civil rights requirements on racial balance and children with disabilities may prove to be a serious threat to the school-choice movement.

Policy Watch "National" reviews the week's best (however you wish to define that) news from inside the Beltway. "Democrats Gain Symbolic Victory on Schools Bill," New York Times, 09/13/2002 Democrats won a rare victory on the floor of the House today when Republican leaders withdrew a bill to provide a limited number of low-income parents with a tax break for education expenses for their children. The bill stands no chance of passing the Senate and therefore no chance of becoming law. So the wrangling today was almost entirely about election-year politics and not about getting legislation enacted. But Republicans almost always win partisan skirmishes in the House because of their narrow majority. So Democrats were especially pleased with their ability to outsmart the Republicans today on the education measure. "It is clear the Republican agenda is in disarray," said Representative Nancy Pelosi of California, the Democratic whip.
