520 |a The report details the findings of a study concerning the support services needed to provide effective public school instruction for California's population of linguistically and culturally diverse students. Information was obtained from three sources: school district and intermediate agency administrators and professional personnel trainers; principal and faculty of an elementary school with an increasingly diverse population; and professional development literature. Findings, presented here are to be verified later by questionnaire survey. Four principal challenges were identified: (1) providing instruction that accommodates both similarities and differences in the needs of diverse students; (2) expanding all teachers' and administrators' insights and knowledge regarding limited-English-proficient (LEP) students' experiences and language development needs; (3) providing high school students with equal access to all academic opportunities; and (4) developing an adequately prepared teaching force. Specific recommendations for program implementation support are outlined in three areas: personnel knowledge and skill development; development of classroom instructional strategies; and use of technology. The elementary school studied is discussed as an illustration of these needs. Contains 12 references. (MSE)
