Hello all,

I am looking to upgrade and implement new material into our Computer lab. Does anyone know of state of the art software that's worth having? We already have a variety of programs such as Side by Side, Interchange and a few others but they are starting to become dated, and I would really like to see something new, innovative and exciting for our students to use. If anyone knows of new language software that's fun and cutting edge, I'd greatly appreciate your input!!

Hi David. I have just joined the forums and am trying to rally support for the language learning platform I've dedicated the last several years of my life to building.

The nutshell version is that we let students go to any webpage in their target language on the web, and we transform it into an engaging, interactive learning environment. We've got teachers in several unified school districts help us beta test, and they love it. Here's the catch. It's only in Spanish right now. But we're in a grant competition in the state of Nevada (the only edtech company pitted against other industries!) and can win $100k if we win a popular vote.

If we win the grant, the first thing that we're going to do is retune the system for English. if this is the kind of system that you would like to use in your classroom, please vote and share!!

THANK YOU in advance for any and all love you can send our way. I'd be happy to chat in greater detail about our project and how we can support you, create the tools you want, and more.
