Hi. I'm trying to finish a brochure for our Adult ESL program and am looking
for quotes on using technology and ESL and why it is important. I've
searched through NIFL but am thinking that perhaps you all might have a list
of quotes that you like or places to find them.

For those of you who think I'm off the wall, you probably are right. But it
is very hard to convince funders that ESL and technology are good bets. Many
NYC programs don't really use technology at all in their ESL programs so it
is hard to convince funders that doing it is good.

Thanks for any help.
