In
this assignment, you will create a 1-page infographic, select a culturally
relevant website, piece of software or multimedia, or an adaptability device,
and describe why the material is culturally relevant. You will also reflect on
course learning and how it will strengthen your teaching of English language
learners.
Step 1 Select a
culturally relevant website, piece of software or multimedia, or an
adaptability device. Reflect on the item of your choice and describe why the
material is culturally relevant. How can this item be used at your school? Is
it applicable to students or to training faculty and/or staff? Reflect on the
information from this course and why this item came to mind
in relation to it.
Step 2 Select an
infographic tool to illustrate the information you addressed in Step 1. See
potential infographic tools in the ACE Digital Tools Center.
Step 3 Reflect
on your course learning by responding to the following prompts: What
research/article was most beneficial in helping you understand your role as a
teacher of English learners? How can you apply what you learned in the course
assignments to better select methods and materials for helping students acquire
English as a second language?
Step 4 Submit
your final document. It should include an introduction and a conclusion. Use
APA format for the title page, in-text citations, and reference page.
Learning English as a second
language requires resources such as books, websites and teachers, among others.
Websites normally provide relevant materials which are normally updated often. The
ESL Lounge website provides learning assistance to ESL students from different
parts of the world. The website provides a variety of learning materials, from
beginners to advanced levels of learning.
