Imagine you are on a district English learner (EL) committee tasked with creating materials for a session to provide teachers with background concerning laws or court decisions that have significantly impacted the education of English learners.

Research the following court decisions and laws:

• Court Decisions:
• Lau v. Nichols(1974)
• Castaeda v. Pickard(1981)
• Plyler v. Doe(1982)
• Flores v. Arizona (2000)
• Federal Laws:
• Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA)
• Title III
• Title VI
• Arizona State Laws:
• Arizona Proposition 203
• Arizona House Bill 2010
• Arizona House Bill 2064
• Arizona Senate Bill 1014

Consider reviewing this week's University Library resources for research purposes.

Select a court decision, a federal law, and a state law that you feel have had the greatest impact on English learner education.

Write a paper that includes the following:

• An overview of the historical background of the court decision, federal law, and state law you selected
• An explanation of how the court decision you selected impacts the policies and laws governing language instruction in Arizona
• An explanation of how the federal law you selected impacts accountability, assessment, funding, and identification in EL education
• An explanation of how the Arizona state law you selected impacts language acquisition methodology, student grouping, and the time frame to achieve language proficiency
