Assessing and teaching digital literacy skills for adult ESL/ESOL beginner and high beginner learners

Hello LINCS colleagues,

I'm interested in learning about effective strategies for assessing and instructing ESL true beginners and high beginners who need basic digital literacy skills.

If you've had success in doing this, what software or other digital tools have you found helpful, and how do you use these with your students?

Do you do this entirely in-person? Do you use a blended (integrated online and in-person) or other hybrid approach? Do you do this entirely remotely? By telephone?

What have you found most challenging in trying to do this?

What strategies, assessments, or curricula have you found particularly suitable and/or effective?

Thanks!

David J. Rosen
