RSS Feed BEST BETS FOR THE ESL CLASSROOM By Ana Bishop The rapidly growing K-12 population of non- and limited-English-speaking studentsincluding some without literacy in their home languagemeans that high-quality ESL software is more in demand than ever. Here, we present four titles that use multimedia to provide students with speaking and writing opportunities, games, "real life" contexts, and the individual feedback so important to language acquisition. It used to be that only large school systems, such as New York City or Los Angeles, faced the challenge of meeting the English language-learning needs of vast numbers of students whose home, or native, language was not English. Now even little towns and rural areas face these same challenges, and often with very limited staffsusually one or two itinerant English as a Second Language (ESL) or bilingual teachers. Though ESL software has been on the market since the early days of classroom computers, the last decade have seen a huge growth in its development in the United States and other countries. With the '90s came the technical capability to provide electronic books and other content-level titles in multiple languages, usually English and Spanish. The latest ESL software programs, however, not only offer animation, video, and colorful graphics, but can handle voice recording with ease and are even experimenting with voice recognition as a teaching element (see "The Voice Recognition Controversy,"). What seems to be more prevalent and really useful is the trend toward adding native-language assistance, as you will see in some of the four products we review here. Following, by grade level, we look at some of the best recent offerings on the market. To assist you see the glossary.

A Review of Teaching with the Internet: Lessons from the Classroom Reviewed by Amelia E. El-Hindi Teaching with the Internet: Lessons from the Classroom. Donald J. Leu, Jr., and Deborah Diadiun Leu. 1997. Christopher-Gordon Publishers (480 Washington Street, Norwood, MA 02062, USA. 1-800-934-8322; fax 617-762-2110). ISBN 0-926842-59-5. Softcover. 226 pp. US$24.95. Her words echoed in my mind when I read Teaching with the Internet: Lessons from the Classroom (1997) by Donald and Deborah Leu. The book is aptly named, for it describes actual teachers' use of the Internet and illustrates specific strategies that integrate this new technology with classroom instruction to enhance meaningful learning. The authors' premise that "Learning from one another is essential to success on the Internet" (p. 3) becomes clear through teacher anecdotes on use of the Internet to support all types of learning, from teaching inquiry skills through navigation strategies to fostering reading-writing connections with e-mail. Such technology provides a way for teachers to reach beyond their individual classrooms and link with educators everywhere. A reader hears from Angeles Maitland Heriot, a seventh-grade teacher from Buenos Aires who praises the ability of the Internet to allow children to discover firsthand the "geography, history, and culture of the world" (p. 170). Readers also hear from Terrie Gray, a junior high science teacher from California who discusses early Web experiences and invites us to visit a Web page created to teach research skills at

You can start by checking out Astronomy Magazine's web page, which has links to many other astronomical sites (most of them interested mainly in telescopy and deep space, however, and some of them quite esoteric for advanced hobbyists) As yet, this page does not include the excellent monthly skymaps of the magazine, but reproduces some articles that appear in each recent issue. S ky and Telescope is another magazine aimed both at high-school science students/teachers and astronomy hobbyists.

December 2003 Evaluating Software for the Classroom Choosing instructional software to use in your class is an important decision that requires diligence, planning, and time. Don't let that deter you from integrating it into your curriculum though. There are a variety of simple steps you can take to help ensure that the product will be an appropriate and effective choice for your class. Check with Your District First Some districts and states have software evaluation programs in which a volunteer network of teachers evaluate software and make their evaluations available. You may be able to read reviews of the product that have already been conducted. When resources such as these are not available, you will need to review the software yourself. Initial Considerations Prior to getting into a full-scale program evaluation, several issues should be considered. These include system requirements, intended grade or age level, time requirements, and cost. You can usually find this information printed on the software packaging itself. Some software products provide only minimal information about the program: a one line description of system requirements, a brief description of content, and the intended grade level. Others also provide useful information that will help you farther along in the process, such as instructional objectives, integration suggestions, related online resources, and supplemental print materials.

JSET E Journal, Volume 16, Number 1, Winter 2001 Associate Editor Column Cheryl Wissick Constructivism and Literacy what do these terms bring to mind as a special educator? Does constructivism have a place in the special education classroom, the integration of technology, and the process of learning? In a two-part series, we will examine these issues by reviewing texts that focus on the application of constructivist principles to the integration of technology. Guest writer Wanda Calvert, an instructor and doctoral candidate in literacy at the University of South Carolina, and I will review two texts that weave a constructivist perspective into the integration of technology. In this issue we will focus on a review of Learning with Technology: A Constructivist Perspective by Jonassen, Peck, and Wilson. The next issue of JSET will feature a review of Using Technology in K-8 Literacy Classrooms by Anderson and Speck.

60. Teaching The Teachers That fire will help sustain teachers through the many frustrating moments that Mandating teachers to use classroommanagement software as a vehicle for http://www.electronic-school.com/0398f1.html

T he digital generation gap is alive and well in most schools. Just watch how elementary school children pick up new computer applications without batting an eye, while their teachers struggle with the basics of point-and-click. We might as well admit it: Adults have a much harder time learning computer skills than children do. Kids have grown up in a wired world, their computer proficiency often acquired through years of "technoplay" with Nintendo and video games on Macs and PCs. Students also have the benefit of malleable neurological pathways that allow their minds to acquire new skills more quickly. Whatever the cause, it is clear that teachers indeed, most adults have a much more difficult time figuring out how to use a computer effectively than the average 10-year-old does. This digital generation gap has serious consequences for schools. Indeed, I would argue that the biggest obstacle to the implementation of technology in education isn't a lack of hardware, but rather the fact that many teachers aren't ready to use computers in the classroom. National statistics have shown that teachers receive far less on-the-job training in technology than any other professional group. The business community knows that for every dollar spent on hardware and software, another dollar must go toward staff development. But on average, school districts spend only about 5 percent of their technology budget on teacher training.
