“Exit Ticket” Due today by 6:30pm
Two items that caught my attention in the Gándara & Rumberger
2003 article about ELLs are the following: (1) their section
referring to “Intense segregation into schools and classrooms
that place them at particularly high risk for educational failure”
and (2) their question of “What can and should be done to
address these inequities?”
Focusing on these two areas, please answer these questions
before 6:30pm today via email or paper:
 Does intense segregation of English Learners still
happen today? If so, provide an anecdotal example.
 Looking at the author’s suggestions for what can be
done to address inequities, how do they connect
with teacher quality?
Draw someone
working in a STEM career
Please take the next 10 minutes drawing
someone whom you feel represents working
in a Science, Technology, Engineering, Math
career. Be prepared to share with either
another person or with the class about your
drawing 10 minutes from now…
10 minutes are up...
After sharing your drawing to the class, consider
these questions:
• How is this connected to the Cassie Brown
case study?
• How is this connected to DAST studies?

Media and the notion of
American Masculinity
The following trailer is from the film “Tough Guise:
Violence, Media & the Crisis in Masculinity” and can be
found at http://www.mediaed.org/cgibin/commerce.cgi?preadd=action&key=211. Consider
the following:
• How does this film, produced in 1999, compare with
the media violence and masculinity of today?
• How does this film connect to the Justin Healy case
study?
