A New 20-booth language laboratory at the University is making possible further advances in the teaching of modem languages.
Experiments in oral tuition began here several years ago. As a result, some courses, particularly French I, have changed radically.
A lot of oral work, it is now thought, speeds learning of the written language as well.
This year, thanks to the new laboratory, French I students will hear and speak more French than ever before.
The language laboratory's chief advantages are that each student can receive individual help from the tutor without interrupting others and can also work privately at his own speed. In fact, different people can work on different taped courses at the same time.
