Synopsis

Exploring the ways in which language comprises the implicit or explicit curriculum of teaching and learning in multicultural science settings, this book contributes to scholarship on the role of language in developing classroom scientific communities of practice, expands that work by highlighting the challenges faced specifically by ethnic- and linguistic-"minority" students and their teachers in joining those communities, and showcases exemplary teaching and research initiatives for helping to meet these challenges.
