    Abstract:

    LINCS now offers materials created by the ESL Pro project to improve adult ELL instruction in three areas: increasing the rigor of instruction, integrating digital literacy into English language instruction, and connecting adult ESL learners to career pathways. Materials include issue briefs, teacher-focused instructional resources in a digital magazine format, and online learning modules on each of the topics. The roles of both teachers and administrators are addressed in each module. Preview the materials, hear how materials are being used, and consider how they might be used in your program or state.
