Advantages of S.E.

Example # 2

who have inherited nonstandard varieties of plantation English continue to face special literacy barriers in schools, where Standard English proficiency correlates closely with academic success” (p. 10).
![Page 23: The Effects of Standard English on Non-Standard English Language Learners in Schools](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062323/56816682550346895dda274c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Results McWhorter (1998) - nothing wrong about
nonstandard dialects. Varieties of English are traced to Old English. Many linguists believe that non-standard
English should also be incorporated into the teaching of Standard English in schools.
As long as the incorporation of this language includes some knowledge of Standard English, the effects will be beneficial.
