Summary "Despite recent efforts to shift the narrative for our nation's English learners, most of our present policies and practices are indisputably informed by a deficit lens. The very label English learner (or EL) -- a term used both in federal (most recently in ESSA) and local policies -- suggests a deficit in that it focuses on what is lacking (English language proficiency) rather than on an emergent asset (developing multilingualism). This deficit perspective typically permeates all aspects of our country's education system beginning at the classroom level, extending through the culture of schools and districts, and ultimately manifesting itself in misguided legislation and policy such as Proposition 227 in California which effectively prohibited bilingual education for nearly two decades"-- Provided by publisher
