WHAT
IS LANGUAGE LAB?
A
language Lab is a facility where a student or any aspirant
can learn a language with the help and guidance of a teacher
through a system, to improve his/her speaking and listening
capacity.
One can get familiar with any language of one’s choice, be
it English, French, German etc. Further one can go deeper
to familiarize oneself with dialects and accents in the selected
Language. The Language Lab can receive inputs from recorded
tapes, CDs, etc. A proficient teacher in the specific
language is the only external requirement to monitor the students
during the learning process. The use of a language lab will
allow your students to learn another language, improve their
reading and speaking skills, and develop their own native
language comprehension at an accelerated rate. Through
repeated practice sessions, one adapts the correct pronunciation
and accent. The teacher can assign session-wise lessons
for each batch at the commencement of the course. Students
will automatically receive pre-recorded lessons from the master
source through the teacher while logging in and can use these
lessons for practice.
Listening
skills are primary to becoming fluent. Language lab helps
to develop listening skills, allowing the students to focus
on the spoken word, therefore, enhancing their ability
to repeat and understand the spoken language. Students
can be subdivided into small groups to either listen and respond
to the instructor's program material or interact with each other
in conversational exercises. There are many types of
exercises and activities that can be developed by instructors
for both mainstream and special needs. The modernization of
language labs over the last decade has ensured both increased
reliability and functionality to a higher level.
In
the 2nd stage, microprocessor supported devices were included
in the system, together with tape recorders and amplifiers.
Elimination of certain defects in the earlier system was possible,
through not all.
In
the 3rd stage of development of the Language Lab, computers
marked their first appearance in a very meager way.
RTM
Language Lab is the only futuristic system,
which has risen to the 4th Stage of development.
It eliminates the use of tape recorders and is the only fully
computerised lab incorporating a unique software package developed
by RTM. The lessons and the interactive communications are
processed in digital format to produce high clarity, while
noise is eliminated during transmission. This makes teaching
and learning very effective.
The
RTM Language Lab is a technological breakthrough by RTM
for imparting skills in language learning. Here an expert
teaches the specified language. through the PC by monitoring
the learning process.
The state-of-art facilities and features enable unique,
effective, efficient and satisfying means of spoken language
enhancement.
