Title: New Book: Spanish and Heritage Language Instruction in the United States
Body: From http://linguistlist.org/issues/17/17-266.html Title: Spanish and Heritage Language Education in the United States Subtitle: Struggling with hypotheticals. Series Title: Lengua y Sociedad en el Mundo Hispánico, 12 Published: 2005 Author: Marta Fairclough, University of Houston This book examines the effects of formal instruction on the learning/acquisition of standard Spanish by Hispanic heritage learners attending intermediate and advance level courses at the University of Houston. Using a variationist framework of correlating linguistic features with social variables, the book analyzes the expression of conditionality (i.e., hypothetical discourse) in a corpus of heritage learners' speech and written data. Another corpus compiled from traditional foreign language students of Spanish is used for comparison. The study addresses four major questions: (1) What are the main differences between Hispanic heritage learners and traditional foreign language students of Spanish when learning the standard/academic variety of Spanish? (2) Are there significant differences among different production tasks among the heritage learners? (3) Is second dialect acquisition an additive process? (4) How effective is explicit grammar instruction for second dialect acquisition?

Title: Arizona Incurs Fines over English-Learner Instruction Funding
Body: Last Wednesday was a landmark in the battle between the Governor of Arizona, Janet Napolitano, and the state's Legislature over how much to spend on English language learners. The recently introduced Republican-backed plan was rejected by the Democratic governor, who favors a policy which would triple the current amount allotted for their education, resulting in fines of $500,000 per day until an agreement is reached.
