Title: California Drops Out of ELL Assessment Consortium
Body: From http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/learning-the-language/2013/02/california_drops_out_of_ell_as.html California Drops Out of ELL Assessment Consortium By Lesli A. Maxwell February 13, 2013 California education officials have dropped out of a group of a dozen states that had organized around the need to develop a new English-language proficiency assessment that will measure the language demands of the Common Core State Standards. The state had planned to be part of ELPA 21—or the English Language Proficiency Assessment for the 21st Century consortium—which is led by Oregon and funded by a $6.3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education. California's inclusion in the consortium was significant because the state's public schools educate 1.4 million English-language learners, more than any other state. ELL-rich Florida is also part of the group. Read the full article at http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/learning-the-language/2013/02/california_drops_out_of_ell_as.html

Title: Book: Learning Chinese
Body: From http://www.degruyter.com/view/product/177754?format=G Learning Chinese: Linguistic, Sociocultural, and Narrative Perspectives By Patricia Duff, Tim Anderson, Roma Ilnyckyi, Ella VanGaya, Rachel Wang, and Elliott Yates Published by de Gruyter Overview: The acquisition of Mandarin Chinese, one of the most important and widely spoken languages in the world today, is the focus of this innovative study. It describes the rise of Chinese as a global language and the many challenges and opportunities associated with learning it. The collaborative, multiple-case study and cross-case analysis is presented from three distinct but complementary theoretical and analytic perspectives: linguistic, sociocultural, and narrative. The book reveals fascinating dimensions of Chinese language learning based on vivid first-person accounts (with autobiographical narratives included in the book) of adults negotiating not only their own and others' language and literacy learning, but also their identities, communities, and trajectories as users of Chinese.
