Syracuse Language Series, reported the best-selling language software in the UK, suitable for 8 years-plus. Titles include French for the Family and Spanish for the Family, each containing four of the language CD-ROMs and the four programmes in each title covering language learning from children to adults and a Harrap CD-ROM dictionary.
Start Start Deluxe offers three levels for progressive learning from eight-plus, covering speaking (a speed meter lights up as pronunciation improves), listening, reading, vocabulary (learnt through games), conversation (talk with the characters on screen, slow down dialogue and see/hear individual words), pronunciation (record/playback means you can compare yourself to a native speaker) and grammar with CD-ROM material plus a user's manual (useful for computer novices) and a ‘guidebook' something like an old-fashioned textbook with printed back-up to the material and lessons on disc amounting to 48 short lessons. Languages covered include French, Spanish, German, Italian, and ‘Chinese'. Jump Ahead French for ages 5-8 is a preparatory programme for children, designed to develop a foundation for future language learning with activities based round key topics such as Conjuring Numbers, Dressing Bear, Hide and Seek and Exploring Town, developing listening skills, reading comprehension and vocabulary.
The web site offers backup with quizzes to check progress, a Cultural Caf? plus language FAQs and cultural links.
