Lessons and Dilemmas Derived from the Literacy Instruction of Two Latina/o Teachers.
Jimenez, Robert T.; Gersten, Russell
American Educational Research Journal, v36 n2 p265-301 Sum 1999
Examined the teaching of two Latina/o elementary school teachers and identified issues with the potential for improving the literacy instruction of Latina/o students. Findings indicate that infusion results in a balanced approach to literacy learning, that more extensive reform increases teacher rapport with students, and that teachers' identities influence their instructional approaches.
