Technology can be useful across many different classrooms
Technology in the ESL classroom is particularly useful because it provides students with a way to not only translate but understand and comprehend words in their own language. Certain programs have proven to teach academic concepts as well as provide hidden Second language learning as well.
I'm going to talk about the NAVER app from personal use. NAVER is a widely known search engine (equivalent in English would be google) that has access to many different languages. The NAVER app is a Korean based dictionary and translation app that provides translations in English, Japanese, Chinese and German languages. The NAVER app is useful because it provides the translations from a Korean point of view and sentence structure rather than an English one.
If searching through the dictionary, you can search in any language and once you click on a word, you can scroll down and many different language translations are available.
The only negative i could think of would be if it had the ability to access a thesaurus through the translation and choose various words to gain correct meaning.
Naver also has many different games and news streams avaliable
