Interview and report on a local school’s placement practices for ELLs. Interview an ELL instructor that you have observed during your observations for this course or one from a nearby Title I school about how assessment is used for placement. Inquire also about how placement is determined for both special education and gifted ELLs. Your questions might include (but should not be limited to) the following:

  1. What are the indicators of exceptionality that a classroom teacher should look for when a student also has a language barrier?
  2. How can informal as well as formal assessment results factor into placement?
  3. What role do parents and teachers have in placement?
  4. What are some primary factors that are exhibited in underachievement that may not necessarily signal special education needs?

Consolidate your findings in a 750-word essay, supporting your findings with at least three current sources from your readings and the GCU library to support your reasoning.

Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.
