Through student-teacher interaction that incorporated prompts, recasts, and constructivist pedagogy, the students’ rough drafts (written interlanguage) were transformed into standard English at the conclusion of 1-to-1 writing conferences. One teacher and 10 3rdgrade students participated in this mixed-methods study. The study took place after school for 1 month (20 sessions of 20-45 minutes each). The data consisted of 35 transcribed writing conferences, writing samples, and interviews. Results indicate that it can be a useful vehicle for differentiated instruction, constructivist pedagogy, and second language acquisition to address the diverse needs of second language learners.  \nIntroduction  \nAconsensus is growing that the achievement gap between students of  \nhigh-and low-socioeconomic status is indicative of an education crisis.  \nBarton (2005) contended that California’s official high school graduation rate of 87 percent is really about 71 percent. Approximately 24 percent of students in California’s public schools are learning English as a second language (about 1.5 million out of a total enrollment of 6.3 million), with especially high concentrations in certain schools (Rumberger, Gándara, & Merino, 2006). Only about 39 percent of Hispanic students in the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) graduate from high school, one of the state’s lowest rates (Losen & Wald, 2005) . California is second to last among the states—above Mississippi—in terms of high school seniors who enroll in 4-year colleges (Rogers, Terriquez, Valladares, & Oakes, 2006) . The mayor of Los Angeles has called it“the new civil rights issue of our time”(Landsberg, 2006) .  \nOne response to this education crisis has been an increasing reliance on explicit instruction of phonics and phonemic awareness (Foorman, Francis, Fletcher, Mehta, & Schatschneider, 1998; Izumi, Coburn & Cox, 2002; Maddahian, 2002), direct instruction (O’Neill, 1988), and standards-based instructional programs (Williams, Kirst, Haertel, et al., 2005) . In contrast, some have  \nThe CATESOL Journal 21.1 • 2009/2010 • 9  \nfocused on the complex nature of literacy as well as the need for a meaningcentered approach (Moustafa & Land, 2001; Peck & Serrano, 2002; Wilson, Martens, Arya, & Altwerger, 2004) while others have identified the emergence of a two-tier educational system in California: (a) a constructivist and studentcentered curriculum that emphasizes academic freedom, creativity, and higherlevel thinking skills for schools in higher socioeconomic areas; and (b) a directinstruction textbook-centered curriculum that emphasizes rigid uniformity, narrow measures of literacy, and lower-level thinking skills (Achinstein & Ogawa, 2006; Achinstein, Ogawa, & Speiglman, 2004) . Another response has been to reexamine the knowledge base of second language acquisition and constructivist pedagogy, such as task-based instruction (TBI). According to D. R. Ellis (2003), although the emphasis of TBI is oral communicative competence, it can encompass all four domains of language (listening, speaking, reading, and writing); while grammar exercises prompt students to learn target-language forms, tasks guide students to actually use the target language. Skehan (1998) noted that tasks emphasize primacy of meaning by presenting a communication problem that needs to be solved.  \nLong’s (1996) seminal study of interaction between native speakers (NS) and nonnative speakers (NNS) in the classroom led to the interaction hypothesis. He found that pairing students into NS-NNS dyads and giving them ","cbCaiqAkyduBJ00a","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqAkyduBJ00a","pdf",430087,"English","# Introduction\n## Education crisis and achievement gap\n## Literacy instruction approaches and standards\n## Task-based instruction and interaction hypotheses\n## Writing language, task-based writing, and conferences","[{\"question\":\"What was the study designed to examine?\",\"answer\":\"The study examined how task-based writing instruction affects second language acquisition and differentiation of instruction for English language learners during independent work in the Open Court Reading program.\"},{\"question\":\"How did the instruction support language development?\",\"answer\":\"Through student-teacher interaction that used prompts, recasts, and constructivist pedagogy, students’ rough drafts were revised into standard English during 1-to-1 writing conferences.\"},{\"question\":\"Who participated and what data were collected?\",\"answer\":\"One teacher and ten 3rd-grade students participated.
