Title: PennSound Offers MP3’s of English Literature
Body: From http://www.eschoolnews.com/resources/links/showLink.cfm?linkID=351 ‘PennSound’ offers poetry for your iPod Thanks to an online audio archive developed by professors at the University of Pennsylvania, recordings of Ezra Pound or William Carlos Williams can take their places on students’ iPods alongside tunes from Better than Ezra or Carlos Santana. Recordings of these two poets’ works are now available free of charge through PennSound, which features about 200 writers and more than 10,000 recordings contributed by poets, fans, and scholars worldwide. The two-year-old site recently acquired rare readings by Pound, some previously unknown. While many web sites stream poetry readings, they require an active internet connection. With PennSound, files are downloadable in MP3 format and can be played offline and on portable devices such as iPods, said Charles Bernstein, an English professor and the site’s co-director. PennSound is available at http://www.writing.upenn.edu/pennsound .

Title: New Report: Similar English Learner Students, Different Results
Body: From http://www.ncela.gwu.edu/newsline/archives/2007/06/similar_english.html A new extended analysis of California schools finds that how elementary schools focus their time and energies, and what resources they have for doing it, can make a powerful difference in the academic achievement of English Learner students from low-income backgrounds. The report identifies four educational practices associated with higher performance among elementary English language learners. The four practices include: using student assessment data extensively, ensuring access to good teachers and instructional resources, closely aligning the curriculum with state academic standards, and setting measurable and ambitious goals for student achievement.
