Texas District Selects Android Tablet for ESL Students


This article is from The Journal
A Texas school district is deploying 100 education-oriented tablets across several middle schools specifically to assist with ESL programs.
Garland Independent School District will distribute Brainchild’s Kineo tablets for use with the company's Achiever! software to help English language learners prepare for STAAR testing, the Texas state assessments.
The ESL students will use the tablets for individualized instruction. When Achiever! is used online, students can view lessons in both English and Spanish. The company's remedial software, Mechanics, will also be used with some students to help build fundamental skills.
