Survey Of Georgia's Public School Systems With Self-Contained Language Classrooms, Brenda J. Jones Jan 1989

Survey Of Georgia's Public School Systems With Self-Contained Language Classrooms, Brenda J. Jones

Theses and Dissertations

Twenty-two teachers of self-contained language programs throughout the State of Georgia served as respondents for a survey of the operations of their programs in terms of students, teacher training, referral process, assessment process, entrance criteria, curriculum, and exit criteria. Results indicated that although the self-contained language programs are operating without standardized regulations, there is a great deal of similarity in their procedures, particularly in the areas of students, teacher training, referral process, entrance criteria, and exit criteria. The results of this study may be of benefit to state department personnel in developing regulations/procedures for self-contained language programs within the state.

Student Vandalism And Public Schools: The Scope Of The Illinois Educators' Directive To Discipline, Donald Shawler

Northern Illinois University Law Review

Following a brief review of the costs that student vandalism imposes upon society, and the history of discipline in public education, this Article turns to a discussion of the part due process considerations must play in Illinois school officials' decisions to suspend or expel pupils. Despite both procedural and substantive guarantees for students, the power to decisively act against vandals threatening to impede the educational process remains broad. An appendix to the Article sets forth a proposed regulation to assist educators in dealing with student vandals.
