Abstract: Two reports concerning the evaluation of language minority and limited-English-proficient students are presented. The Task D170 report provides conclusions of a written focus group on the issues involved in defining appropriate outcome variables, outcome variables to be used, and the relative importance of LEP student outcome variables for school accountability and for assessing program effectiveness. Group results are summarized, and the responses of each focus group member on each of five questions are presented. The Task D190 report presents the results of a written focus group on five questions about panelists' experiences with communications technology for this purpose, potential uses, potential for improving the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of assessment, specific technologies holding the most promise, possible difficulties in developing and implementing communications technology for assessment.
