A project was conducted to identify and evaluate available microcomputer software for use in helping limited English-proficient (LEP) and English-as-a-second-language (ESL) vocational students to develop career awareness and basic and employability skills. During the project, a literature review was completed in order to identify the special needs of LEP and ESL students, examine the causes for above average dropout rates among these student populations, and assess the relative effectiveness of computer-assisted instruction (CAI) as a method for helping LEP and ESL students develop basic skills. The masteries of state specified, exit level objectives by LEP and non-LEP students graduating from Texas schools were compared and State mandates for coordination between ESL and vocational programs were reviewed. Twenty-five microcomputer programs for use in helping LEP and ESL students master basic and employability skills were identified and evaluated. (Copies of the evaluations of all 25 courseware products are included in this report.) (MN)
