| Title | Book Review: Situational Context of Education |
| Body | From: http://linguistlist.org/issues/16/16-601.html Situational Context of Education: A Window into the World of Bilingual Learners Brisk, Maria Estela; Burgos, Angela; Hamerla, Sara Ruth Educational outcomes are affected by situational factors outside the control of the student, family, teacher or school. Advantages are enjoyed by students who, for instance, speak the school's language outside school, are of higher socio-economic status, belong to the dominant ethnic group, live in safe neighbourhoods, and attend well-funded schools. The converse applies. The central idea of Situation Context of Education (SCE) is that, while teachers and students may be powerless to change the situation within which they teach and learn, both groups can benefit from increasing their conscious awareness of that situation.
