Parlato, Salvatore J.
This manual, a basic guide to the field of English as a Second Language (ESL), including bilingual education (BE), lists nearly 1,000 U.S.-based organizations that service ESL/BE educators. The core of this guide consists of ESL-oriented data in the form of names, addresses, and telephone numbers. Resources are presented in the following categories: ESL and Bilingual Education (principal association, affiliates and related organizations, state Title VII offices and evaluation assistance centers, and multifunctional resource centers); Literacy Organizations; Related Organizations (languages and linguistics, federal agencies, foundations and research centers, special education interpreters and translators); Multicultural Organizations (ethnic societies, embassies); Immigration/Resettlement Agencies (U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service, migrant services and education, advocacy/reform/interest groups); Professional Development Opportunities (graduate education, overseas employers and brokers, travel/study/exchange programs); Publishers (books, periodicals, tests); and Media and Technology Producers (video/films, computer software). A list of postal abbreviations is included. (Adjunct ERIC Clearinghouse on Literacy Education) (LB)
