We searched the
app store as a teacher would and found 35 apps that could be used to support the learning of dual language learners in early childhood programs. While this is not the definitive list of all available apps, it took a very extensive search to get this sample due to limitations of the app store search function. We used a rubric to analyze the language support features of this sample. This rubric was created as an informal tool that teachers might use to guide their choices of the available apps. © Copyright, Karen Nemeth, 2012 3
4.
Six questions that are easy for early childhood educators to use to evaluate apps for use in multi-language classrooms. Instructive for developers. © Copyright, Karen Nemeth, 2012 4
5.
▪ Are additional
languages free? ▪ Provided via in-app purchase? ▪ Available by downloading purchasing different versions? © Copyright, Karen Nemeth, 2012 5
6.
One word
at a time? Simple preschool-level vocabulary but adds little to the child’s ability to communicate or process knowledge Sentences? Stories/songs? Complex activities that require thought and response? © Copyright, Karen Nemeth, 2012 6
7.
Was the
app written in English, then translated? Was the app developed in another language, then translated to English? Does the developer offer any documentation to support the accuracy of the translation? Is the whole app available in the two languages? Are the instructions in English, and some of the activity is provided in another language? © Copyright, Karen Nemeth, 2012 7
8.
Are there
multiple levels? Is there a way to track what the child has accomplished? © Copyright, Karen Nemeth, 2012 8
9.
Does the
app take a flashcard approach? Does the app engage the child in activity such as singing or solving puzzles or problems? Are there opportunities for children to choose, plan, or create? © Copyright, Karen Nemeth, 2012 9

Stories that don’t

20.
• Intuitive navigation.
• For ages 5 - 9 • Narrative in five languages: English, Spanish, French, German and Catalan. • A variety of interactive elements, fun animation, additional games and surprises. • Bring the story’s character to life with a surprise photo of your son or daughter. • Option to read without sound. • Original music and sound effects. • Test questions on the subject with a congratulations icon for the champion! • Additional games. • Menu on every screen: Narrative on/off, Music on/off, Home, Games • Bookshop. • Clues in the text to show where to discover additional content. © Copyright, Karen Nemeth, 2012 20
21.
Difficult to search for ECE bilingual apps or apps in different languages No documentation of translation quality Surprising preponderance of stories over flashcards Found more apps use more language than simple flash card approach. Bilingual story apps help teachers build language skills Apps alone do not provide richness found in monolingual story/action apps © Copyright, Karen Nemeth, 2012 21
