The Rosetta Stone Language Library TM programs provide a comprehensive language learning system for learners from third grade through adults. The programs also include a set of written materials that reinforce and expand on students' learning. A powerful and flexible Student Management System is provided for schools. However, for public libraries the CD-ROM's can stand alone. This reference tool allow student to page through chapters to see and hear the material freely without responding.
Students choose from several kinds of exercises for each skill.
Each exercise presents a different combination of voice, text and pictures. These multiple approaches to a lesson allow students to select exercises to fit their own learning style and to achieve mastery of the material. For example, in Listening Exercise 2, students are presented with four color photos and asked to choose the one that matches a spoken phrase. When a student answers correctly, the available choices are randomly shuffled and the next prompt appears. After the student responds to all four prompts, the next set of photos appears.
