Environmental Variables Affecting the School Achievement of Culturally and Linguistically Different Learners: An Instructional Perspective

Abstract

The literature offers many explanations for the differential educational attainment of culturally and linguistically different learners. However, research on effective methods is relatively scarce. This review of the literature was designed to examine the research basis for the school achievement of culturally and linguistically different learners from the standpoint of instructional effectiveness and the opportunity to learn. This review concentrated upon research which directly assessed specific ecological/instructional processes in relationship to achievement outcome measures. An important contribution of the present review is the focus upon functional ecological and teaching variables affecting the academic performance of culturally and linguistically different learners.
