PERSONAL LANGUAGE LABORATORY           $275.00 (GST inc)

For the first time language students can have a fully portable language laboratory, enabling them to improve vocabulary and perfect pronunciation in any language, anywhere, anytime.

How does it work?
The PERSONAL LANGUAGE LABORATORY combines tape recorder with a digital microprocessor. The built-in microprocessor enables words or phrases of up to 12 seconds to be transferred from the tape onto the digital memory. The phrase can be listened to as many times as necessary, and then by activating the built-in microphone, the student can make a corresponding voice recording. The user's pronunciation can now be compared with that of the tape. This process of practicing and comparing an isolated word or sentence can be continued as many times as necessary. When the student is confident with the pronunciation and chooses to press CONTINUE, the memory is wiped clear and the practicing of new phrase can begin.

Will I wipe the tape?
Once a word, or group of words, is transferred from the tape onto the digital memory (microchip), the tape is no longer involved. All the practicing and comparing is done on the microprocessor, so there is no risk of wiping the original tape - in fact, teachers are finding that use of the PERSONAL LANGUAGE LABORATORY actually prolongs the life of the cassettes.

What type of tape can be used?
Any tape that would be used in a normal tape recorder is suitable - this includes any commercial cassettes the school already possesses, or cassettes the teacher has made, as in the previous section.
