It used to be that you had two choices for learning French - go to a night course or buy very expensive (and quite boring) sets of tapes to Learn French at home. Times change though, and now with the advent of the internet and the home pc you have a huge number of choices for French home study courses. Now don't get me wrong - I've got nothing against French text books. There are some very good ones about that use modern teaching methods and patterns of learning that your brain naturally adopts. They're much better than when I was a kid and I've bought quite a few. But they can't compete with modern CDs and the interactive programs that are available. A book can't really talk to you. You can't hear...
How to Sneak Up on the F Bar Chord
Novice guitarists often have a hard time learning the F bar chord. There are two reasons why this guitar chord is one of the hardest to learn. 1. You have to bar all six strings at the first fret where the string tension makes them hard to press down. 2. The wide spacing of the first frets makes it a stretch for your other fingers. The F chord is often one of the first bar chords attempted by beginner guitarists. This is a mistake, though, and can lead to discouragement. It is easier to start learning bar chords further up the neck where string tension is lower and frets less widely spaced. A good place to start is the A, D and E chords at the 5th and 7th frets. The tension and fret widths are...

How to Pronounce the Spanish Language
Unlike English, Spanish is actually pretty simple to pronounce. Where English is rife with silent letters, complicated diphthongs, and contextual pronunciations, such phenomena are mostly absent in Spanish. With few exceptions, each Spanish letter represents one and only one sound. How To Pronounce Spanish Consonants Spanish consonants couldn't be simpler to pronounce. For the most part, you can get away with pronouncing Spanish consonants the same as their English counterparts with a few exceptions. In Castilian Spanish, initial c's and s's are often pronounced like an English 'th' rather than an English 's'. Likewise, the Spanish 'c' usually sounds like a hard 'k' when following certain...
Who requires spoken English courses? Most people who have done their schooling from remote corners of the world in some rural areas or have completed their studies with the local language as first paper do not have the basic knowledge in English. They require English when they are at the peak of their career (some people do exorbitantly well in their exams and they find jobs in various multinational companies which are mainly located in the United States). For them learning English as a spoken language is extremely essential. For students also this language is vital, especially for the students who go abroad and stay there for studying. Some students go aboard after completing their schooling. They...

A friend told me recently her goal in life is to learn all the major romance languages, namely French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Romanian. This sounds like a great goal to me. Just imagine being able to travel anywhere in Latin America and large swaths of Europe, being able to speak to the locals in their native tongue and really getting to know the culture! Fortunately for her, she already speaks Spanish. Every romance language shares a common trait: they are descendants of Latin. Even today, the romance languages have far more similarities with each other than they have differences, most notably vocabulary. About 85% of the vocabulary between Spanish and Portuguese, for example, are...
If you have tried to learn a new language, like Spanish, you will know that it is often a tough task that can be very frustrating at times. You often feel that you are making no progress despite the hours and hours of study that you put in. The fundamental stumbling block is that you have been conditioned over years to think unconsciously in English. That means you implicitly understand the grammar and nuances of the language. This often leads to an over reliance on your native tongue and the reluctance to build your foreign language knowledge from the ground up because you don't know how. If you have ever played soccer, it is similar to using your right and left feet to play the ball. Most people...
From the time we are born, one of the most important mental functions we perform is learning. As a toddler, we learn to walk and to speak. When we start school, we master the alphabet, learn to make friends, and start acquiring writing skills. We then continue to learn various subjects, mastering a few, performing just adequately at many while failing spectacularly at some subjects. Why do we perform brilliantly at some subjects and fail miserably at others? How exactly do we learn? You can find the answers to these questions and more by understanding the 5 basic principles of learning. 1. The Learn by Doing Principle: Ever heard that experience is the best teacher? What it basically means is that...
Language Learning Strategies: Better Strategies...
Language learning strategies do not imply overall plans, but rather methods using which you can comprehend and remember the language while you are learning it. Language learning strategies would include such things as bringing flash cards into play, watching movies in that language, and making use of example phrases for relating to the grammar rules. In order to the most compatible collection of such strategies for yourself, you would need to look at the entire process of leaning a language from different angles. 1. First, start with evaluating the strategies that you have been currently using. Look back to analyze things that have worked and haven’t worked for you using these strategies...
Technological Advancements in Online Learning
Online learning is the hot topic these days as millions of dollars are being invested in new technologies, such as the Internet, with the expectation that education at all levels will be revolutionized.

Adult and continuing education programs are rushing to become players in the new world of global technology, searching for new applications while fearful of "being left behind." Discussions seem to center around the impact...
Throw Out The Rapid E-Learning Stereotypes
I thought I would write a quick post to address the stereotypical viewpoints centering around Rapid e-learning and its tools. Having been in the industry as a developer and e-learning consultant for over 5 years, I feel quite comfortable in knowing what ‘is’ and what ‘isnt’ when it comes to rapid e-learning. I have worked both with traditional methods of e-learning creation and delivery and newer methods, including rapid e-learning tools. I have even in some projects mixed the two together. The extremist viewpoint from some professionals to rapid e-learning tools is that its a ‘fad’ and it produces low quality e-learning which lacks interactivity and engagement. Or they are just tools...

Improve Retention of Your Complex Learning...
Have you ever noticed that once you reach a certain point in learning a new complex idea that it suddenly becomes simpler? It might be a sudden "AH-HA!" moment, or gradually understanding more than you did previously. Either way, once you have acquired a basic understanding of the material, learning new additions becomes significantly easier. Conversely, when you first are exposed to the information, it looks like a wall of new concepts that you have to climb without a ladder. When you present complex ideas and new concepts to your audience, they face the same challenge. They are in unfamiliar territory and cannot distinguish relationships or relevance of sections of the material. They do not know...
The subject of dead languages has come up a lot for me lately. In a recent conversation, I mentioned my desire to learn Cornish, a Celtic language closely related to Welsh, and the response I got was "Oh, yeah, that's a dead language, right?" I quickly came to the defense of Cornish, a language alive and well by my standards, but what began was a lively debate on what exactly constituted a dead language and whether or not Cornish fit the suit (yes, that was a Johnny Bravo reference). I won't get into all of that particular debate now (articles on that subject are fast on the heels of this one) but I'd like to explain my take on Cornish, why it never died and why it is alive and well when there are...
Online Training - Does it Work For Smaller...
Large corporations can afford to send employees to expensive external training courses or to bring trainers in-house for workshops, seminars and other educational programs. But how can small businesses make sure that their employees have similar opportunities to learn and develop their skills? The answer - more small businesses are turning to online learning for high quality learning for much less money. The primary benefit of online learning for small business is cost savings. Let's say you wanted to become a Microsoft-certified systems engineer, which requires a multi-day course. That would run about $2,000 per person. But online, you could get the same instruction for under $200 per person. When...
E-Learning - The Syllabus As a Guiding Document...
Instructors leading an online learning course should use a "one-stop shop" approach for students when it comes to having a place or method for students to find pertinent course information. The best central location for this type of information is the course syllabus and this document should become the guiding document for the course. Defining an E-Learning Course Syllabus A syllabus for an e-learning course should be more than just a repository for course information. Certainly essential course information should be included in a syllabus but there are over-arching concepts that should be communicated in a syllabus. For instance, the syllabus should also be a contract between the instructor and the...
Learning English - How to Reduce...
You may be surprised to learn how many business deals have gone awry, or just never got off the ground due to misunderstandings during negotiations. Deals are reached when each party can clearly understand what the other wants and expects, and they are able to establish a meeting of the minds. This can be very complicated if there is a language barrier. Would you trust your entire deal to your translator? Sometimes translators are not able to convey a message in the way that was intended because there is simply no direct translation between languages. Learning English can help you to better understand the expectations and desires on the other side of the table in a business meeting, and also to...

Educational Videos and Educational DVDs Lend to...
Educational videos have been a staple in interactive classroom learning for years, with no end in sight. While these activities may be changing to include educational DVDs, teachers are now relying on interactive skills to introduce other new technology into their classrooms.

When the new facility opened, district leaders wanted to assemble a sophisticated educational technology classroom. Teachers were already used to chalkboards, whiteboards and overhead projectors. They wanted action and interaction. The answer...
Reward Yourself With E-Learning Content...
In the past, before the craze of e-learning tools like learning management systems, people who wanted to create instructional material either to sell or for use within an organization created paper-based material like textbooks, and enriched the program with audio and video material.

If you're one of those people, remember that in this information era, writing and selling instructional material in the traditional fashion may not be as easy as you imagine. Textbook prices have reached new highs, indicating a...
Active Elearning - Driving Online Students to...
Students differ from one another; there are those who are fond of studying, others study because they need to but there is one sure thing when it comes to how students learn: they learn more if they enjoy learning. When someone enjoys what they are doing they develop passion for that certain activity. People have hobbies because they are fond of that activity and they dedicate time and effort in their hobbies. This human behavior applies to everything, including learning. When students find their lessons engaging and entertaining they will look forward to their learning sessions. If the teaching method used by an instructor or professor are monotonous and routinely, students tend to loose focus and...
One of the greatest obstacles to human communication has been the language barrier. It has limited communication between nations and peoples, confused ideas and intentions, and has even led to wars. While there have always existed regional languages of influence and lingua francas, these come and go through the years, leaving disarray and power vacuums in their wake. A more viable, long-term solution is for everyone to learn a common second language. If everyone learned a common second language, many communication problems between people and nations would be solved. It would level the playing field between nations. Of course, most people reading this are thinking "one world language? - yeah, English...

E-learning courses delivered via learning management systems within school districts are able to address all kinds of issues schools face, including too few course offerings, teacher shortages in certain areas, the rising number of home-schoolers, lack of AP courses, and lack of physical space and school funding.
