      The Best Practices sidebar here can be used as a type of checklist to help evaluate digital programs & materials for ELLs.
  • It's the only program that she knows of that addresses the literacy aspect of math for ELL students.
  • found a measurable increase in vocabulary knowledge and text comprehension,
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • gave HELP Math its highest rating for effectiveness after reviewing research on student improvement related to the program.
  • Because there's not a plethora of digital curricula designed exclusively for English-language learners, teachers often rely on digital curricula used for all students that help individualize lessons, as well as software programs tailored for English language learners,
  • researchers created multimedia folktales and informational texts that included clickable words with definitions in English or Spanish, along with images for students whose English proficiency was very low. The text contained built-in audio, so that students could hear it in English or in Spanish, as well as embedded activities for reflection in both languages.
  • "There's not a lot out there."
  • Very few digital products are backed by research proving they work, and that's important to educators,
  • That can be a problem with digital curricula not targeted for ELLs, Mr. Proctor said. "Most interventions like that exclude very limited-proficient-English students because they don't speak enough English to use them,"
  • Professional development to prepare educators to use digital curricula for English-learners is critically important, too.

  • For schools, improving academic outcomes for ELLs is a litmus test for whether teachers are meeting their charge to truly leave no child behind.
  • fact that the nation’s teachers are and will increasingly encounter a diverse range of learners requires that every teacher has sufficient breadth and depth of knowledge and range of skills to be able to meet the unique needs of all students, including those who struggle with English
  • equally critical to consider how best to prepare mainstream, or general education, teachers to work with English language learners since they are increasingly likely to have such students in their class.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • relatively little attention paid to the essential standards, knowledge, and skills that general education teachers ought to possess in order to provide effective instruction to ELLs placed in their classroom.
  • attending to oral language development,
  • upporting academic language
  • teachers’ cultural sensitivity to the backgrounds of their students
