    "abstract": "English language learners (ELLs) experience linguistic, cultural,\nand cognitive shifts that can be challenging and at times lead to\nisolation for ELLs. While education technology may be an instructional resource and engage learners, devices alone do not\nshift instructional practices or lead to student gains. This case\nstudy was performed at an international school in Europe to\ninvestigate the experiences of 4th-grade ELL students and their\nteaching in a 1-to-1 iPad device classroom. Three main findings\nemerged from the study: iPads have specific functionalities that\ncan be used to support ELL students; ELL students were engaged\nwith using the iPads in content lessons; and study participants,\nincluding teachers and students, perceived language and cognitive growth in ELL students when using the iPad. However, there\nwere also challenges found in the study. To mitigate some of these\nchallenges and build on the success of this study, the researcher\nsuggests developing a common vision for technology integration,\nusing collaborative models of ELL teaching and investing in professional development.",
