In class today we discussed teaching ESL students and how using technology can help these students to learn more effectively. We were asked as a class to think about ways in which we could use technology in this way. Some of the ideas we came up with included the following:
-Use online 'gadgets' and applets to illustrate concepts
-Use geogebra to illustrate concepts
-Have students use a computer to create and submit work to avoid procedural differences in the mathematics
-Show a video clip in the students' native language to demonstrate a concept
-Use physical models and manipulatives
-Use a smartboard with manipulatives
-Translate handwriting into type from a smartboard and print notes this way
-Put classroom discussions/notes online to access later
-Use an online translator
