Synopsis
English language acquisition remains a significant challenge for multilingual learners, including ELL / EAL students. In this session, two international schools will present data-driven insights into how technology supports multilingual learners. Through visual data and real-life case studies, the speakers will explore how tracking key metrics - such as lesson completion, assessment results and student progress - can inform teaching strategies and drive improvement.
Join us as we discuss how schools are using data to measure the impact of their technology tools, tailor their teaching approaches and ensure progress for multilingual learners.
This session is ideal for school staff looking to better understand how data can support planning, identify areas for intervention and demonstrate measurable progress.
