由于语言障碍，社会研究课程中的学术语言对英语学习者来说是具有挑战性的。社会研究教师需要利用有效的技巧来帮助英语学习者克服语言障碍。图形组织者是一种很有前途的工具，可以让英语学习者更容易理解内容。在这篇文章中，我们建议使用一款名为Inspiration®的软件程序，它能够以最小的学习曲线，在一个简单的过程中制作电子概念图，可以帮助社会学科教师更有效地教授英语学习者，并促进他们的语言发展。Inspiration®是一种教学工具，可以帮助社会研究教师了解英语学习者（ELLs）的语言需求，并在Inspiration®的帮助下，将社会研究教科书话语结构中流行的不同类型语言功能的适当学术语言纳入其中，例如描述制定法律过程的语言，比较和对比美国政府的两个分支，以及美国宪法制定过程中的事件顺序。
Academic language in social studies lessons is challenging for English Language Learners because of the language barrier. Social studies teachers need to make use of effective techniques that can help English Language Learners overcome the language barrier. Graphic organizers are promising tools for making content more comprehensible for English Language Learners. In this article it is suggested that Inspiration®, a software program that allows production of electronic concept maps in an easy process with minimum learning curve, can help social studies teachers teach English Language Learners more effectively, as well as enhance their language development. Inspiration® is presented as an instructional tool that can help social studies teachers understand the linguistic needs of English Language Learners (ELLs) and incorporate appropriate academic language of different types of language functions prevalent within the discourse structures of social studies textbooks with the help of Inspiration®, such as the language of describing the process of making laws, comparing and contrasting two branches of the American government, and sequencing of events in making of the American constitution.
