Arellano-Houchin, Anna; Flamenco, Claudia; Merlos, Moises M.; Segura, Lorena
Urban Review, v33 n3 p221-35 Sep 2001
Examined how teachers were impacted by California's Proposition 227, highlighting changes in teaching styles and beliefs about the proposition and its effectiveness. Teachers had to change their teaching strategies to accommodate the new curriculum. They were not sufficiently trained for immediate implementation of English-only education. Teaching resources were not received in time, resulting in an unproductive teaching environment. (SM)
