This system is halfway to a language laboratory. The students have headphone sockets and headphones with microphones. The teacher can tune into any individual student and can hear them and talk to them individually or as a whole class through the system. The teacher can both broadcast tapes and record samples of students' speech, but the students can merely hear the broadcast, themselves and the teachers' instructions through their headsets. They cannot record and playback their own performances since they are only linked to a headphone socket.
