Artifact # 12
Artifact Twelve:This artifact is a list of resources for ESL students, and for teachers of ESL students.
Context
I developed this list of web sites during a technology class
my senior year at ASU. I translated a web page by using Babel Fish, a program
offered by Alta Vista. I found more sources for ESL teachers/students during
a research project I completed in my elementary block at ASU.
Impact
This resource will be very useful to me as an educator because
I will probably have students whose primary language is not English. These
sites provide vital information and also provide other important sources.
The English Learner site is for ESL students to gain extra practice outside
of school. The Babel Fish site will translate words, some phrases, or even
a web page into another language.
Alignment
It is important that classroom teachers have resources for their
ESL students other than the ESL teacher. Usually, these teachers are very
busy and have limited time to work with the students. By utilizing the
Internet, I can find helpful tools and hints on how to effectively incorporate
the student into my classroom (NC Technology
Competency 13.3).
