A decent anthology of recent scholarship
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
As a means to access critical references in the field of designing instruction with English Language Learners in mind (in other words, its nice to have all these bibliographies in one place) this is exceeding valuable. Also serves as a good overview of the literature. As a course book it suffers from its "collection of work" nature for those who might be looking for a more coherent plan of attack, but again this is a developing field and there is a lot to chose from in terms of how to design instruction, so I guess 'its all good'. Includes both very recent (2005) and some classic research.
