    Description

    With an ever increasing number of students learning English as a second language in the United States, it’s important to be aware of the achievement gap between multilingual and monolingual students, and work to find solutions. Existing literature from the past five years highlights that (1) the achievement gap exists as a result of labeling and grouping students based on English language capability, (2) the importance of literacy proficiency in closing the achievement gap, and (3) the importance of self-efficacy in closing the achievement gap.
