= Multimedia Workshop on Basic Computer and Microsoft Word Skills = 

**Topic ** : Technology Skills (ESL) - Intermediate to Advanced English skills Participants will learn basic computer and other technology skills while also developing English language skills. Topics covered will include basic computer parts, vocabulary, and usage, word processing with Microsoft Word, Internet safety, netiquette, email, Google, Spanish Internet sites, translation tools, free Internet tools, basic computer commands, Internet searching and exploration, computer file organization, graphic arts, digital photography and photo editing, social networking, blogging, and other technologies such as cell phones, smart phones, MP3 players, and netbooks. Participants will be given the opportunity to take part in a doctoral research study to explore the perceptions of second language learners about student response systems as communication aides when content is presented in English. The goal of this study is to improve education for English language learning students.

www.wordle.net ** Population ** : Adult English language learners - Woodburn School District parents ** Outcomes ** : Basic technology skills - computer, printer, digital camera, Internet Participants will be able to identify and explain the function of four computer parts in English: keyboard, mouse, monitor, and computer. Participants will be able to start Microsoft Word and perform basic tasks: Participants will be able to create a short multimedia project with Yodio to demonstrate their knowledge and understanding of computer parts Participants will work in pairs and small groups and collaborate in Spanish and in English on the creation of projects Participants will participate and respond to surveys and quizzes in a variety of ways, including the use of student response systems (clickers) ** Gap ** : I assume that students will have beginning to intermediate English language skills and little to no experience with computers. I want them to develop basic computer skills and knowledge so that they will be able to use computers for tasks that are relevant to them, such as typing letters and using the Internet. I also want them to increase their understanding of what their children are doing with computers and being exposed to on the Internet. The 5-hour workshop will focus on basic computer anatomy and basic Microsoft Word skills.
