Reaching all of America’s students includes meeting the needs of diverse learners that possess a wide variety of skills, backgrounds, cultures and family supports. Supporting ELLs, and ultimately all students, involves multiple strategies, professional learning and environmental support. It also means providing next-gen and technological tools that can support language acquisition.

A new publication by Getting Smart addresses these fundamental issues and includes:

•    A landscape analysis of ELL programs, strategies, tools and applications.
•    Findings on what students need to acquire English and what teachers need in order to teach ELLs.
•    Specific recommendations for future tools based on findings.
