Standardized testing

Post by keysesl » Tue Mar 25, 2003 7:21 pm

I am a middle school ESL teacher at a school with a low-incidence of
ESL students. We are looking for strategies that would improve ESL
students' ability to score well on standardized tests, specifically in the
areas of math and English language arts. I would appreciate any strategy
suggestions you might be able to offer. No suggestion is too basic.
Thank you.

Hi!

I have a set of methods that may be useful. I have a vested interest in this because I helped develop the software, but I do feel that it is relevant in your case.

The set of methods are an online suite of integrated tools residing in secure databases on the Internet. The relevant "tools" consist of:
a) a complete testing suite, that gives students immediate feedback in terms of course learning objectives
b) course websites to which you can post documents and announcements any time
c) course tutorials so that students can access quick how-to help any time
d) There is also an e-forum automatically created for any of your classes

The site is at http://www.Net4Ed.com

Hope this is helpful!

Cheers!

-Warren
