The Journal of Current Research and Practices in Language Minority Education is a refereed journal, devoted to surveying and examining various theoretical, policy, and practical issues that affect the language minority students' interest to participate effectively in education.

As language minority students now make up the majority in many urban school districts in the U.S., and in light of lessening support for bilingual programs in public schools, it has become critical for both university professors and school teachers to be effective in their interaction with language minority students. The Journal of Current Research and Practices in Language Minority Education transpired from the fundamental principle that the presence of language minority students is an asset to creating an authentic multilingual environment in a global society.

Part I contains research studies covering an array of topics, including the use of technology, examination of program and pedagogical effectiveness, assessment, and perception. Part II contains reflections from practitioners who are currently working with language minority students.
