ConfabLab
confablab provides a web-based video chat/whiteboard platform for world-wide language learners to connect and immerse themselves in foreign language study. this “virtual cl-ssroom” learning tool is recordable and it stores usage metrics to keep students accountable in the learning process and instructors/parents (of students) informed. these metrics include: date/time of each study session, total study hours acc-mulated in a semester and instructor/partner feedback. this software provides 2 main platforms for language acquisition:
1) student to student (www.confablab.com) – students across the world connect in a “tandem learning” environment. this platform allows students to take concepts and skills from the cl-ssroom and apply them in real-world conversations with their international peers. true fluency is only obtained by immersion in conversation, and this medium allows unlimited opportunities to connect and immerse.
2) instructor to student (www.tutor-cl.com) – an instructor (or tutor) purchases the right to use the “virtual cl-ssroom” to tutor the student face-to-face in a video chat and to utilize the interactive whiteboard.
