Actually, Theresa, I'd like to learn from others. Perhaps you could put your
answers together?

> Hello Everyone,
>   I am an instructor at a local New York County Community College in the
ESL program. Has anyone had success with using closed captioned TV and/or
commercials with low level ESL learners? I am teaching several groups of
Level 1 learners during the Summer Session and would like to go beyond the
standard fare. While there is a wealth of information on how to implement
this procedure, I would welcome a "non-pedagogical" response. (What worked,
what really worked, what didn't, how you did it, hand outs, etc).
>   Please respond to me off-list. Any and all help, comments, etc., are
welcome and appreciated.
>   Thank you.
