I looked at all your "studies". Most were position papers, some were qualitative studies at best, certainly not reliable, valid or outcome based. Your website is full of the same old rehashed ed school curriculum that has saddled California with inadequate teachers, who are quickly overwhelmed when they enter a classroom full of students in the real world. The National Research Council has said over and over that we don't have appropriate studies to say one way or another "what works". But the reality is we have years and years of outcomes that show the failure of bilingual education, constructivist approaches, whole language and discovery math, all devastating to these children who already enter school unprepared and spiral downward until we're left with only half graduating high school and most functionally illiterate in any language. It is ideology and you own it.
