**WELCOME to the Wiki Sandbox This is a place for you to share ideas, post/get resources, and learn from each other :) Group mailing list: yubacity2010@lists.stanford.edu ** Contact: cammy.huang@stanford.edu Yuba City Unified School District (YCUSD) proposes Engaging English Learners (2EL) a program that brings Promethean-type Active Classroom technologies (Interactive Whiteboard, Active Response system, student laptops, digital cameras) to transform target classrooms into technology-rich environments that support target 4th and 5th grade ELL students’ access to the resources and learning strategies needed to move beyond Basic; specifically ELA Content Standards 1.2 Vocabulary and 1.0 Writing Strategies, with the objective of increasing their academic proficiency and their technology skills by an average of 5 percentage points by June 2011.

Professional Development is the heart of the proposal. Target teachers will engage in an unprecedented number of hours to refine their skills, both in teaching and technology integration, as they collaborate, participate in coaching, and become a professional learning community. Under the guidance of Dr. Robert Pritchard, Chair, School of Education, CSU Sacramento, and Dr. Susan O’Hara, Executive Director, Stanford university Center for the Support of Excellence in Teaching, our teachers will become the collegial coaches to their peers as successful strategies emerge and are disseminated throughout the teaching community.
