BerlinLearning NewsOEB Exhibition

LinguaTV presence at the trade show will be the introduction of mobile language learning apps and a prototype for language learning using Virtual Reality. In addition, trade fair and congress visitors will be presented with a unique concept for Blended Learning and Teaching.

 

As one of the most important education fairs in Europe, the combination of “Online Educa Berlin” with “Learning Technologies” is a meeting place for e-learning experts. From 5 to 7 December 2018, the Berlin trade fair will put the future of digital learning at the centre of visitors’ attention. As a leading provider, LinguaTV will be presenting successful methods and future-proofing techniques for learning foreign languages. At stand C60, the LinguaTV team will present their didactically sophisticated video-based language courses, providing insights into the direction in which digital language learning will develop in the future: audiovisual, individual, mobile and flexible.

Special highlights of LinguaTV’s presence at the trade show will be the introduction of mobile language learning apps and a prototype for language learning using Virtual Reality. In addition, trade fair and congress visitors will be presented with a unique concept for Blended Learning and Teaching. The e-learning specialists are thus responding to the growing demand for the combination of classroom-based teaching with digital materials. LinguaTV thus enables language teaching from a single source. In total, the language learning platform offers courses in English, Business English, Spanish, French, Italian and German as a foreign language. 

“With our integrated concept of relevant content, effective methods and user-friendly technology, we are once again setting the standard for successful language teaching in global companies and modern educational institutions,” explains LinguaTV’s Managing Director, Philip Gienandt. “Studies and experience show that combining our audiovisual learning concept with individual and self-directed study ensures the best learning success.” 

Especially in the compilation of the individual components, the Berlin-based company goes one step further than conventional e-learning: LinguaTV combines the acquisition of language skills - vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation - by native speakers with entertaining learning through interactive, video-based language teaching and gamification elements. 

Practical scenes as well as interactive exercises ensure that the language learned is permanently anchored in the memory and can be used immediately. The mobile availability of the language courses - in the app also offline - also facilitates flexible language learning on a variety of devices from almost any location. Thus, LinguaTV can be used independently of time and place as well as seamlessly integrated into one’s own everyday life. 

Looking to the future, the innovative provider will be presenting a prototype for language learning using Virtual Reality. Visitors will get the unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the world of language learning with Virtual Reality glasses. “This gives us a whole new meaning to the term immersive learning. How this works will be demonstrated at Online Educa / Learning Technologies 2018,” announces Philip Gienandt.
