"The study of immigration and education is still new,
and many issues are as yet unexplored. For example, how much do
we, as practitioners, researchers, or policymakers, know about
the adaptation, education and everday experience of children who
have been overlooked by the existing literature, such as children
from Hmong, African, and Yemeni origins? How can we better understand
the role of immigrant families in schooling of their children?
How do school programs and other institutions contribute to the
success--and failure--of immigrant youth? In this new era of globalization,
do we need a new research paradigm for the study of immigration
and education? With this Special Issue, the Editors of the Harvard
Educational Review direct close and much needed attention to these
and other questions facing U.S. educators, practitioners, and
policymakers. " --Desiree Baolian Qin-Hilliard, Erika Feinauer,
and Blanca Quiroz
