| Title | Assessing English Language Learners |
| Body | From:NCELA Assessing English Language Learners Lorraine Valdez-Pierce's Assessing English Language Learners, published by the National Education Association (NEA), discusses the importance of educators, when testing English language learners, going beyond traditional practices because they only provide a limited amount of useful information. What are most effective, instead, the author says, are "embedded in instruction" and classroom-based assessment practices. This book is an installment of the NEA's Student Assessment Series and is meant to assist educators from preschool to graduate studies in improving their skills and knowledge in student achievement and assessment. Chapters include: English language learners, second language acquisition, standardized tests, performance-based assessments, scoring tools, and professional development.
