Bilingual Research Journal, v24 n1-2 p75-85 Win-Spr 2000
Interviews with 32 teachers in 8 California school districts examined how teachers responded to Proposition 227. Three teacher reactions were identified: outward defiance, clarification of pedagogical purpose, and anxiety in the face of change. Key factors in these reactions were teacher ideology and experiences and the course of implementation taken by their districts and schools. (TD)
