Omschrijving

Arizona’s monolingual and prescriptive approach to teaching English continues to capture international attention. This book examines the experiences of those involved in Arizona’s language policy on a daily basis, highlighting the importance of local perspectives as well as preparing and professionalizing teachers of English learners.



Restrictive Language Policy in Practice is a tour-de-force study of the impact of restrictive language policy on the lives of administrators, teachers, and students. No other work to date has examined restrictive language policy in the United States and the damage it can cause to English learners. A must-read for educators and language policy scholars.



In this detailed, comprehensive case study of language policy in Arizona, Heineke provides an in-depth, close-up view of language policy processes and their impact at different policy levels (e.g. classroom, district, state) and offers strategies for shifting our paradigm from top-down policies to bottom-up professionalization.



A previous elementary teacher within the Phoenix school system, the author provides a uniquely comprehensive investigation into what has been deemed the nation’s most restrictive context for English learners (ELs). Her focal case study breaks down the limitations of a one-size-fits-all language policy in the classroom and at the district and state levels, and offers informed, practical solutions to positively affect change for ELs in Arizona.



The study is among the first of its kind to provide an in-depth account of the multifaceted layers and players involved in Arizona’s language-in-education policy—particularly given its emphasis on the ELD block, and serves as a valuable resource for researchers interested in investigating the underlying complexities associated with negotiating ideologies across multiple layers of LPP.



Heineke’s well-organized text adds a textured, thoughtful, qualitative vertical case study approach to the growing body of work exploring the multilayered impact of Arizona’s restrictive language policies.



Heineke’s monograph is a powerful portrait of a language policy implementation and is well worth reading.



[This book] is an excellent resource for language policy practitioners and researchers. It provides substantial information on restrictive language policies and the academic
impact they have on bilingual and EL student populations.



Amy J. Heineke is Associate Professor of Education in the School of Education, Loyola University Chicago, USA, where she leads undergraduate and graduate teacher education programs focused on English learners and bilingual education. Her research interests include language policy, English learners and teacher preparation.
