Hello Irshat,

For several years the Adult Literacy Resource Institute in Boston 
supported teacher staff development minigrants which were used by some 
teachers in the Boston area to develop instructional/learning Websites. 
  In some cases, the grants also included support for ABE and ESOL 
student website design work.  Here are some examples:

Virtual Visit to a Mill in Lowell, MA (Web page design by GED student)
	http://hub1.worlded.org/docs/lowell/home.htm
Homebuying Web pages in which ESOL students created some of the content 
and/or designed the pages
	http://www2.wgbh.org/MBCWEIS/ltc/Housing/HousingHome.html
	http://www2.wgbh.org/mbcweis/ltc/final/vvhome.html
	http://alri.org/fannie/fnma3/FM99a/QuestionPanel.html

Also check out:

The Fortune Society in NYC Students' Web pages
	http://www.FORTUNESOCIETY.ORG/computer/studentwork.htm
Queens Community College ESOL Class Queen Bee's Web Page -- students 
made their own pages.
