STONE ONLINE LANGUAGE PROGRAMS
CWCS
offers online access to Rosetta Stone.
The yearly cost is $89 per student for all levels of one language until August
2011. If your student finishes a level before the time is up, he/she may go
on the next level. The program has modules available for 24 different
languages. If you change your mind about the language you chose, your ES
may contact the administrator to change to another language. Your ES will
have online access to view your student’s progress.
Because
this is an immersion program, students will:
* Hear, write and pronounce words and match them to images
* Speak aloud to finish sentences or phrases
* Refine pronunciation by emulating native speakers
* Complete review exercises to help transfer learning into long-term
memory.
* Learn naturally with no translation or memorization.
* Engage interactively and stay motivated with a range of activities and
exercises.
* Speak confidently and build conversational skills using speech recognition
software.
* Have fun—the program makes language learning accessible and enjoyable.
* This is an excellent immersion program
for English Language Learners too. Rosetta Stone correlates to state and
national standards for English as a Second Language (ESL) and world language
studies.

(Note that
Rosetta Stone does have a Homeschool stand-alone
product that loads on your computer and gives you access to one or more levels
of one language for $259- $499. This option allows you to load the
program on to one computer and have up to 5 different learners using it at one
time. This might be more economical for larger families if all are learning
the same language. See your ES to order the Homeschool
boxed version.)
