NABE Journal Released Online

The National Association of Bilingual Education (NABE) Journal of Research and Practice (NJRP) is now available online at http://njrp.tamu.edu. As one of NABE’s officially sponsored publications, the NJRP has as a central mission to help advance the research-based knowledge of the field of bilingual and ESL education.

Volume 2 of the NJRP serves as an archival record of articles written by major bilingual education and ESL education invited experts and many other contributing authors who presented at the NABE 2003 Conference. The collection of 14 articles represents information linking research and practice to increase the knowledge base of scholars and practitioners in the field of bilingual and ESL education.

Among the authors are Virginia Collier and Wayne Thomas; Alfredo Benavides and Eva Midobuche; and Eugene Garcia and his team of collaborators, that is, Yu-Min Ku and Marco Bravo.

Some of the themes covered by these authors are professional development for supporting bilingual and ESL educators, the role of research-based knowledge including a summary report of Collier and Thomas’ longitudinal findings, parental involvement and placement of bilingual children. This second volume discusses the effect of high-quality bilingual and ESL education for increasing developmental and academic achievement outcomes for all English language learners.
