Language labs

Language labs facilitate a broad range of activities that involve students in reading, writing, listening, and speaking the target language.

In a language lab, students do not play a passive role.

  • Students listen to (and/or watch) multimedia materials in which native speakers of the target language are talking in an authentic context.
  • Students record themselves and listen to themselves speaking the target language.
  • Students converse with their fellow students in pairs or in groups using the target language.
