Description
Our Fluency Builder computer software for beginners is different:
- It replicates the manipulatives of actual foreign language classrooms.
- Its sole purpose is to build mastery of a manageable number of everyday words so you can say and understand many things with them.
- Most activities can be worked an unlimited number of times and never be exactly the same.
- It uses hands-on activities that allow you to move as many as four objects on the screen to construct a single response.
- More than 200 operations run behind the scenes to monitor, profile and guide your performance.
- Errors are converted into learning with no loss of momentum.
- Screen features change regularly to support attention.
- Response times change in order to support attention and boost your reflexes and courage.
- Response times are adjusted as you progress.
- Unpredictable stimuli are presented to force deliberate responses.
- Stimuli are presented in a combination of fixed and random sequences at just the right times to maximize learning.
- The psychology of learning and memory underlying the entire system is the most extensive among language softwares.
- We quickly modify the software on request.
We are improving the first two Fluency Builders, especially for younger students. We are adding a lot to the second Fluency Builder. Some younger students do better to watch the software run on Autoplay until they understand the procedures. Autoplay is effective for this and can be used for an indefinite period of time.
