Abstract:

A growing population of culturally and linguistically diverse students is challenging the mathematics reform movement. Mathematics educators are examining assumptions about learning mathematics in a second language and factors that may contribute to the learning complexities. This report is part of a longitudinal study designed to tease out the complexities of language acquisition and the development of mathematical ideas.
