Teachers can use learnings from the Jean Anyon study to inform their practice and better serve their English language learners.

Students have watched a video segment about using critical inquiry to analyze current realities. Students are now prepared to read the results of a research study and apply those ideas to the analysis of their personal schooling experiences.

    2. What type of school do you teach in?
    3. Who benefits most from the different types of practices described?
    4. What practices do you morally think are best for students?
