>Subject: monitoring student oral exercises in a lab

I have been asked to investigate whether there is any virtual language 
lab software which allows an instructor in monitor function to both hear 
and talk to a student while the student is responding to a canned 
program, without toggling between "Listen" and "Talk".  It is my 
impression that programs all pause the canned file while the instructor 
talks, and then the instructor has to return to "Listen" mode again to 
hear the student's response, pausing yet again if he wants to "Talk" 
again, etc.  Is this correct?
