Abstract
Faculty and Educational Technology Center staff at the College at Old Westbury have created an electronic language laboratory and integrated it into a variety of language courses, including English as a Second Language (ESL), Spanish, and French. This presentation describes the selection of the lab's software and hardware, a description of two ESL programs, and a discussion of the integration of these programs into the classroom curriculum. Using pre- and post-tests, we have measured students' progress in acquiring college-level English language skills by supplementing in-class instruction with independent work in the language lab.
