Preferred term

program effectiveness research  

Definition

  • Since the Lau v. Nichols decision in 1974, legal responsibility was placed on schools to provide effective programs for English language learners (ELLs). It comes as no surprise, therefore, that considerable attention has been given to the question of how schools, by evaluating their offerings, can best serve these students.
