Managing an Integrated Language Arts Classroom demonstrates how holistic teachers can organize daily, weekly and occasional events so that, at the same time their students are developing skills and growing in knowledge, they are also becoming increasingly independent and enthusiastic learners. It is based on the belief that, by creating a supportive community of learners, teachers can help to build self-esteem in all students, regardless of their current developmental levels.

This collection of empirical work offers an in-depth exploration of key issues in the education of adolescents and adults with refugee backgrounds residing in North America, Australia and Europe. These studies foreground student goals, experiences and voices, and reflect a high degree of awareness of the assets that refugee-background students bring to schools and broader society. Chapters are clustered according to the two themes of Language and Literacy, and Access and Equity. Each chapter includes a discussion of context, researcher positionality and implications for educators, policy-makers and scholars.
