Technology to Assist English Language Learners

The article that I found clearly states how technology can help students who are learning English. Students can use the Internet to find different programs to assist in learning the new language. Students can also communicate with other students to get help with learning the language. Also, students will be able to use the internet to assist with translating things that they don’t understand.

The article gives a great example of students who used laptops and the students were able to communicate with them. This allowed the students to practice their use of the new language and also work together and complete an assignment. There are many form of technology that will be able to assist student who are English Language Learners, finding one just takes knowing your students and the most effective way to teach them.
