This week I focused on the CEBS disposition of valuing diversity. I worked with the ESOL students in the library on doing research. The ones I worked with did not a have a good grasp on the English language. The teacher said that this was a tough class, many are new to the states and to the area and still speak so much Spanish in the home that they have a hard time translating English. I noticed that the computer really helped this out a lot. SInce many of the students are familiar with the computer and are able to communicate with common terms like search engine, website that it went better than I thought. They worked hard and were very patient with me as I tried to help them.
