Reform in Teacher Education through the CLAD/BCLAD Policy.
Barreto, Ramona Maile
Multicultural Education, v5 n2 p11-15 Win 1997
Analyzes obstacles facing multicultural/bilingual teacher education reform in the context of California's Crosscultural Language and Academic Development (CLAD) or Bilingual Crosscultural Language and Academic Development (BCLAD) programs, which try to translate theoretical frameworks concerned with cultural difference into credentialing policy. This reform effort champions linguistic and cultural diversity but faces formidable obstacles. (SLD)
