Instant Translation = Student Equity

How many times have you had a student in your class struggle engaging with you and other students as a result of a language barrier that exists? NO MORE!!! Pronto's Instant Translation feature supports 105 languages and allows anyone, regardless of language to send and receive messages in their own native language. Before giving it a try, go into your personal settings inside of Pronto and navigate to 'Language and Translation'. Make sure the 'Instant Translation' toggle is switched on. Once toggled on, go into a group and send a message in a different language. Pronto will instantly translate any message into whatever language you have your phone settings set to. Pretty awesome, right! 

Don't know any other language besides english. Below are a few examples you can copy and paste: 

Mandrin: 很高兴在这堂课上被理解

Spanish: es bueno ser entendido en esta clase

French: c'est bien d'être compris dans cette classe

Below is an Educause Article recently published talking about how Pronto has changed the game for hundreds of students at a Texas school near the Mexican boarder.

"more than 90 percent of STC professors using Pronto have connected with at least one student with whom they previously were unable to connect."
