Teachers have many technology tools available to support English language learners (ELLs) including cameras, computers, word processing, videos, and interactive books. These tools can help translate students' native languages, provide instructional materials, and allow students to communicate through blogs, presentations, and virtual field trips. It is important for teachers to consider copyright laws and to teach ELLs about plagiarism since these students may be unfamiliar with strict academic policies.

In most European countries, students begin learning second languages early on in school and most individuals, child or adult, are able to effectively communicate in their second language if not also in a third and fourth. In Canada, almost all of the provinces have total immersion programs set-up. Most people realize at this point that learning a second language is crucial, but for some reason, the United States has yet to significantly increase language programs.
Key Principles, Strategies, & Digital Tools for ELL Instruction in CCSS 2016Martin Cisneros
Need to enhance your workflow with English learners? Explore a set of key principles, workflows, and digital resources to support ELs in meeting the Common Core and beyond!The principles are meant to guide teachers, coaches, ELL specialists, curriculum leaders, school principals, and district administrators as they work to develop Common Core State Standards-aligned instruction for ELLs. These principles are applicable to any type of instruction regardless of grade, proficiency level, or program type.
This workshop will present digital pathways to transform instruction for English Learners and to address the 4 Cs of Communication, Collaboration, Critical Thinking, and Creativity. These innovative resources are natural vehicles for engaging student interest, for differentiating reading and writing assignments, and for revisiting skills and content in a new, meaningful format. They can become an invaluable part of the small group structure, allowing the teacher more time for RTI, ELD, or other small group instruction. Sample lessons will show Common Core alignment, with flexible strategies that can be leveraged to enhance education across the K-12 grade span. We will also address workflow solutions, to make the review of student work manageable. The presenters will highlight language acquisition strategies, including all areas of communication: reading, writing, listening, and speaking.
Techniques, Tactics, & Tools that support English Language LearnersMartin Cisneros
Learn helpful strategies & unhelpful practices for English language learners. This session will show examples of teacher tried and tested apps, extensions and add-ons as well as built in tools in Google and beyond that support English-language learning in the classroom!

This ppt describes the framework for teachers to consider when infusing technology in the classroom in order to facilitate second language learning...especially with ELLs
1. Technology in English
Language Learning and
Foreign Language
Instruction
Presenters: Jo,
Catherine, Allison,
Lauren, and Amanda
2. Concepts
● Teachers face the challenge of
integrating technology for ELL students
● Teachers can use technology to provide
multiple ways of instruction
● Technology can help translate the
students first language and second
● Technology can provide materials
otherwise not available
● Technology enhances and supports
language learning
3. Devices Used
● Cameras- Include child's photo to recognize
their culture.
● Scanners- Put the childrens work into the
computer, allow them to work with
● Computers- Use interactive games to
strengthen skills
● Word processing- Use spell check, foreign
language special characters
● Video camera- Children record themselves
talking
4. Communicating with
Technology
● Blogs- Help communicate when ELL students
do not understand a concept, parents can see
what the children are learning
● Virtual field trips- Children can "visit"
locations they otherwise may not have.
● Presentations- Visual aids, assignments
● Websites- Online exercise, resources
● Interactive storybooks- strengthen language
skills
● Email- Communicate with one another
5. Productivity Tools for word processing,
database management, and spreadsheet
applications
● Word Processing helps correct spelling and
grammar for ELL students
● Encourages students to practice the target
language to create documents
● Good database management can allow teachers to
communicate with other teachers and share
resources and ideas
● Spreadsheets help students to organize information
when preparing a presentation or even paper
writing
6. Use of Multimedia Tools
● Videoconferencing can be used to connect
ELL and FL students with native speakers in
other countries.
● Podcasts can be used for listening
instruction, practice, and assessment.
● Handheld devices such as those from
LeapFrog can be used for games in math,
science, social studies, and languages.
7. Use of Multimedia Tools cont.
● Interactive books can be set to be read
aloud or the student can choose to read it
on their own. These can be used when
students are on different learning levels.
● Language labs be used for dialog journals,
where students talk about a certain topic.
Teachers can monitor the process, give
feedback and have verbal interaction with
the student.
8. Adaptive/Assistive Devices
● Book Box (http://www.bookbox.com) view
and listen to stories in one language along
with second language captions.
● Simple Wikipedia (http://simple.wikipedia.
com) Articles are written explicitly in simple
English to reduce the complexity and
eliminate jargon.
● VocabGrabber (http://www.
visualtheasaurus.com/vocabgrabber) Paste in
a section of text to have the vocabulary
analyzed.
9. Adaptive/Assistive Devices
● http://www.yakitome.com Students simply
type in or copy a passage of text and it
converts it to audio.
● EFL Frog: EFL Frog is an interactive
website for young students learning English.
It provides students and teachers with the
tools to make flash cards as well as play
vocabulary development games. http:
//eflfrog.com/
10. Socially responsible, ethical, and legal use of
technology, information, and software
resources
It is important for English Language Learners to know
what plagiarism is and how to avoid it. The students may
not know how serious plagiarism is because it may not be
as strict in their former countries. Also, because these
students are learning a new language they may be more
willing to copying someone else’s work.

11. Copyright laws and guidelines in the
use and access of technologies
Teachers can give their students certain websites
to use to find their information or images that are

teachers that abide by guidelines and laws (http:
