; in particular, he made a distinction between informal conversational language
and more formal academic language in his research on children developing bilingual competence at
school. This distinction generated controversy from the beginning, but has nonetheless proved
valuable in drawing attention to the many ways that individuals use and understand language in
education, as well as more generally. Nevertheless, as “content
-based langua
ge teaching” developed,
it was unclear how the relationship between “content learning” and “language learning” was to be
articulated. During the same time period, research was increasingly pointing to the need for explicit
attention to language itself as part of the second-language learning process in school contexts, as
exposure to the language alone did not lead to development of proficiency. Whereas initially this
research primarily studied the ways teachers helped ELs use English with greater accuracy by
providing feedback on errors, subsequently the main focus of research on English development has
changed in recognition that learners inevitably make errors as they expand their meaning-making
repertoires.

This study concludes that
english learners (ELs) bring a wealth of resources to science,
technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning, including knowledge and interest in
STEM-related content that is born out of their experiences in their homes and communities, home
languages, variation in discourse practices, and, in some cases, experiences with schooling in other
countries. ELs are those students ages 3 through 21, enrolled in an elementary or secondary school,
not born in the United States or whose native language is a language other than English, and whose
proficiency in speaking, reading, writing, or understanding the English language may be sufficient
to deny the individual the ability to successfully achieve in classrooms where the language of
instruction is English. The diversity of ELs includes heterogeneity in cultures, languages, and
experiences that may have an impact on these students’ education (including the contexts that
expose them to risk factors that may have negative impacts).
