Colleagues

This is a US publication but may be of interest. I recently picked up a new book by Margo Gottlieb - Assessing English Language Learners Bridges from Language Proficiency to Academic Achivement which may be useful to us here - Corwin Press - A Sage Publication Company ISBN 0-7619-8889-0

Subject: [eal-bilingual] Training - assessing speaking and listening

Dear all
Does anyone know of a good training resource to help EAL and mainstream staff accurately assess the speaking and listening skills of bilingual learners and assign them an approp language stage/level (1-4 in England)? I've checked out the teachers TV excerpt but the clarity of the pupils' talk isn't
great. It doesn't need to be video, audio would suffice.

Thanks
Luan
