The
international success of the Rosetta Stone method comes from the fact
that it allows even students with little preknowledge to find an entry
into a new language. Even after just a short period of time, students
are able to understand words and sentences and to intuitively apply
these in practical communication settings.
Intuitive System of Learning
New vocabulary are introduced using carefully chosen images and
these language building stones are then combined and expanded into ever
more complex combinations - altogether without using
translations! Intuition and the ability to combine are being challenged,
so that the learned subjects are committed to memory, quickly and for
the long-run. The learning software also has a sophisticated speech
recognition, with which it is possible to practice and improve
pronunciation of words and sentences.
Mastering Learning Tasks Using Voice
In many practice sessions, the program asks students to try out and apply what
they have just learned, using the microphone. As a result, students
quickly become accustomed to master learning tasks, not just using the
cursor but also using their own voice. Especially with languages with an
unfamiliar pronunciation and intonation, the language lab can be of
immense value.
Mobile Learning
With Rosetta Stone, it is possible to study using a tablet or a smart
phone, in addition to the computer. The app required for this can
be downloaded for free from the Apple Store or Google Play and activated
right away by previously registered students.
