The document discusses a potential solution for students with hand or arm injuries who have difficulty writing extensively in lecture environments. It proposes a voice recording device that would record class lectures, then convert the audio to text on a computer. The device would have multiple recording buttons to separate different lectures. When plugged into a computer, the recorded lecture would become a word document that is easily editable. The specs note it would be small, have storage for 4-6 hours of audio, and include noise cancellation and options to highlight keywords, create an outline, or summarize upon converting the audio to text.

Unit 8. New ways to learn, Lesson: Reading
This document provides instruction for an English lesson that introduces new ways to learn using technology. It begins with a warm-up activity called Pictionary. The lesson then discusses how digital lessons, electronic dictionaries with voice recognition, and language learning software and apps can provide effective and portable instruction. It suggests using mobile devices to record real-life English audio and video as a way to improve pronunciation and learn from native speakers. Students are asked to consider what device best suits their individual learning style.
Language laboratory 1
A language laboratory is a computer room setup to improve foreign language learning through speaking and listening practice. It contains individual soundproof booths for students, each connected to a console room for the instructor. The instructor can monitor and communicate with students to evaluate their speaking skills and provide feedback as students practice pronunciation by listening to recordings and repeating aloud. While language labs provide benefits like individualized self-paced learning and exposure to native speech, they also have limitations such as not developing reading/writing skills and being difficult to implement in rural areas.
Text to Speech PowerPoint
- Text-to-speech software was first created in Japan in the late 1960s and came to America in 1973 when Bell Atlantic developed their own version. It allowed printed text to be read aloud.
- Since the 1980s, development has focused on expanding what can be read and making the voices sound more natural. In recent years, the goal has been to make the voices as human-like as possible.
- Text-to-speech software can be used to read any text on a computer for students with disabilities or language barriers as an inclusion tool. It allows for adjustment of reading speed and voice used.
Unit 8. New ways to learn, Lesson: Communication & culture
