I couldn't resist this one either--is there a story here about inclusiveness? There is a place for everyone--we might have to acculturate or change--just a little to be accepted--but we can always go back...

Voxonic | Freedom of Speech In Every Language


Voxonic Freedom of Speech In Every Language

New Age Language Learners--Check this link out! This software by Voxonic may revolutionize teaching and learning a language. In fact, it begs the question: Do humans really need to teach or learn another language? Perhaps language or communication robots are all that is necessary. I don't think the software can replace human will and desire to learn albeit I am indeed optimistic, that is cautiously optimistic, of the implications for expedient global communication this software has to offer...what are your thoughts?

SEAS HERE!

Hello New English! I hope you are having fun on the planet--the fun factor rules whether at work or play--right? I just wanted to tell you how much you add to my day--you really energize me! I love to watch you reveal the "real you" which consistently appears to emerge about now--the forth week. You are so much more communicative than, say, the first week! This social interaction is what makes language learning come alive! All of you start to interact more after about four weeks together and that is when I have noticed that we all have a better understanding and a higher trust level so, naturally, the anxiety level decreases and the real personalities emerge. This is when you can finally become who you are--yet now in English--hence, you are The New English. What do you think? Do you believe that your interaction in class has evolved naturally. I think you are amazing people and I marvel at your individuality. Well, enough of my verbosity, right? See you soon!
