Jane Govoni Discusses SLIFE with Andrea DeCapua

I found an interesting set of videos about Students with Limited or Interrupted Formal Education over at the ESOL website.  In these four videos, Jane Govoni, Ph.D. puts a series of questions about SLIFE to Andrea DeCapua, Ed.D. They compare Students with Limited or Interrupted Formal Education (SLIFE) to English Learners (ELs) and discuss how teachers’ strategies may differ for each.  The videos are short (under 5 minutes each), but they provide a good introduction to the background and needs of SLIFE.
