Description

It's no secret that, in most American classrooms, students are expected to master standardized American English and the conventions of Edited American English if they wish to succeed. <i>Language Diversity in the Classroom: From Intention to Practice </i>works to realign these conceptions through a series of provocative yet evenhanded essays that explore the ways we have enacted and continue to enact our beliefs in the integrity of the many languages and Englishes that arise both in the classroom and in professional communities.
