I’ve been a longtime fan of the ESLvideo site (see A Forgotten (By Me!) Gem That Has Been Rediscovered (By Me & My Students): ESL Video).
Prior to AI, students could watch videos and answer questions about them.
Then, with the advent of AI, it really seemed to pioneer ways to use it with English Language Learners in its use of what they called “Chattybots,” AI features that allowed students to interact with them.
As regular readers know, I’ve been out of the classroom since last June. I recently visited ESLvideo for the first time since then and was blown away by the advances they’ve made in the use of AI. Here’s what teachers can create (or use what other educators have made):
The image at the top of this post shows an image, and my interactive with the chatbot describing it.
I never used tech much in my ELL classroom (see The Role Of Tech IN My ELL Classroom? Not Much, But That’s Not The Whole Story). However, tools like ESLvideo are great for students to use as practice at home, where few – if any – other people speak English.
I’m adding this info to THE BEST POSTS ABOUT USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE WITH ELLS.
