Kim, Amy I. – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2022

Kuyok, Kuyok Abol – Intercultural Education, 2010

Abedi, Jamal – Yearbook of the National Society for the Study of Education, 2005
A fair and valid assessment for every child, as mandated by legislation such as the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) of 2001 and the Improving America's School Act of 1994, must consider the complexity inherent in assessments for subgroups of students. Due to the rapid growth of the population of English language learners (ELLs) in the United…
