Introduction

Speak Everywhere (SE), developed in the Center for Technology-Enhanced Language Learning in the School of Languages and Cultures at Purdue University, is an online oral practice/instruction/assessment platform for foreign language teaching. It dramatically increases your students' oral practice opportunities by making it possible to give speaking homework.

Overview:

  1. Instructor prepares online oral exercises on SE
  2. Instructor assigns exercises to students
  3. Students access SE via internet and work on the exercises
  4. Instructor listens to students' oral submissions and grades them and gives feedback in audio/text 
  • Exercises can be used as oral tests (to be taken either in a computer lab or at home)
  • Authoring requires no computer programming. If you can edit images and video clips, the rest is a matter of filling in online forms.
