English Language Learners with Special Needs: Identification, Placement, and Instruction. This book recently published book, by Alfredo J. Artiles and Alba A. Ortiz, (Editors) describes the challenges involved in identifying, placing, and teaching English language learners with special education needs. It describes model programs and approaches, including early intervention programs, assessment methods, parent/school collaboration, and native and dual language instruction. All students deserve the best possible education, that meets their individual needs and capitalizes on their strengths. This book will take us a long way toward achieving that goal.
