- Summary:
-
The evaluation of the first year of the English as a Second Language Tutorial Program of Boulder Valley Public Schools included on-site observations, interviews with coordinators and teachers, a linguistic evaluation of each student (elementary and secondary levels), a classroom teacher's questionnaire, a parents' questionnaire, and a tutor's reaction form. Detailed findings of the evaluation are presented. Some of the major conclusions are: (1) the program is of high quality; (2) there is a critical shortage of materials; (3) more consideration should be shown the individual tutor in designing the teaching schedule; and (4) more inservice training should be provided, particularly to overcome the negative attitudes of some classroom teachers toward non-English-speaking students. The following appendices are provided: (1) the classroom teacher's questionnaire, with a number of teacher comments; (2) the ESL tutor's reaction form; (3) the parents' questionnaire; (4) a description of the Peace Corps Oral Proficiency Interview, used to evaluate the students; and (5) a list of program personnel.
