Learn German with vocabulary trainer per podcast
Learn German by listening to German-Englisch vocabulary trainer
With May 5, 2008 ActiLingua offers its free vocabulary trainer per podcast. The mission is to turn learning German into a child’s play.
Podcast as magic formula
Is podcasting still an unfamiliar topic? Read on to learn about this technology and how it can be used in a smart way to improve ones German skills easily and comfortably.
A podcast is a digital-media file (e.g. audio or video files) which is distributed over the internet and based on a script called RSS. Podcasts allow the user to watch or listen to the files on their computer, iPod, mp3-player, mobile phone or other portable devices which support media files.
I want to improve my German! How does it work?
The use of podcasts in learning foreign languages offers many advantages. Because of the technical background the files are downloaded automatically when new content is added. The good thing: Once the user have subscribed they won’t miss a lecture. Daily from Monday through Thursday a new lecture is downloaded automatically to the users computer. The lectures can be burned on CD, put on the iPod or mp3-player and it enables the user to listen to it whenever and wherever he/she wants to: in the car, on a long train journey or while walking to an appointment – the lectures from the vocabulary trainer are portable and allow to improve ones German skills with every repetition.
Podcast – a modern method of e-learning?
The initiators of the vocabulary trainer podcast are convinced that this method of independent learning offers many benefits. “The listening comprehension is trained and the pronunciation can be improved significantly”, confirms Dr. Roland Ernst, founder of ActiLingua Academy. Co-initiator Michael Kohlfuerst from PromoMasters.at emphasizes the potential of the vocabulary trainer for companies: “Enterprises can profit from the German-English vocabulary trainer when embedded in the intranet.” He stresses the fact that the podcast doesn’t substitute a German course at a German language school with full cultural immersion but it offers employees a free and time-efficient way of updating their German skills.
The daily training helps to expand the word pool and improves the pronunciation – success will be noticeable soon.
An example: One of the lectures teaches something about coffee: "Ich trinke meinen Kaffee ohne Zucker... I have my coffee without sugar.“
