Abstract

Based on knowledge of ESOL learners, adult education, and teacher integration of technology, two faculty members from a regional state university partnered with the local school district to develop a training program that would ultimately improve the learning of ESOL students. The faculty members, instructional technology professors, worked closely with the school district ESOL director to develop and deliver training that would meet the needs of school ESOL coordinators who work directly with teachers. During the course of one academic year, this organizing team conducted a needs analysis, created training opportunities, and carried out training for all district ESOL coordinators.
