Hello,
I am seeking advice/recommendations for software that can be used
outside of class time in a computer lab for students to learn/practice
Mandarin. It's OK if multiple programs are needed (for instance, one has
excellent listening activities, another has challenging written
activities). Best-case would be programs with interactive, integrated
activities and authentic input, of course. Also, it would be great if
these programs also allowed export of student work in standard formats
(doc/rtf/txt outputs of written work, mp3/avi/mpeg output of spoken
work) for review by peers/instructors in other contexts. The lab is
already equipped with microphones, webcams, video cameras, and digital
voice recorders.
Can you let me know what, if anything, you are using/have used/know
about and what aspects of language learning it most fully addresses? And
any pros/cons you know of with those specific products?
