Language Labs & Language Classrooms

To get the most out of your language education courses, we recommend our Genesis language lab system. Genesis is designed for use in any type of language lab - ESL, ASL, Foreign Language, Speech Therapy - and gives teaching and learning new life. With a digital language recorder, grouping, pairing and exam functions, Genesis offers all of the features of traditional hardware language labs with the added benefits of computer control and digital transmission. All of these capabilities are software-based allowing you to turn any computer lab into a world-class digital language lab.

Computer Labs - General Education

With Genesis Flex, you can take control of any computer classroom and teach any subject. Genesis Flex takes key control and monitoring features from the flagship Genesis program and incorporates them into a more generalized version suitable for any computer lab or curriculum. This cost-effective solution includes student monitoring, instructor screen broadcast, remote computer control, application control, website blocking and many other features.

Virtual Learning Environments - Curriculum Management - Distance Education

With Genesis VLE, you can create, control and manage entire courses. Because VLE creates a virtual environment, it can be used from anywhere on the planet where an internet connection is available. VLE includes a web conference module for online interaction, screen sharing, face-to-face dialog and collaboration.

Audience Response - Student Polling

With large seminar hall sizes at many colleges and universities, innovation is required to include all students in the learning process. TouchTool is a wireless audience response system that provides such innovation for students and teachers. Quizzes or surveys can be presented to the entire class through an overhead projection system and students can key in their responses on comfortable hand-held keypads. The results are then stored for grading or automatically displayed to show class comprehension and participation levels. This flexible software and handheld solution is a must for modern lecture halls and classrooms.

Audio-Visual Control for Classrooms / Media Centers

Are you tired of having so many remote controls to keep track of in your multimedia conference room or lecture hall? Do you need a simple, yet powerful AV control solution? UNI-COM is the all-in-one solution for connecting and controlling all of your AV devices (DVD Player, VCR, Audio Cassette, etc.) directly from your computer screen or from a hardware touch panel. The UNI-COM AV Controller is a combined A/V Switcher, IR Remote Interface, Environment Controller and Stereo Amplifier.

Video Servers fro Campus Video Libraries

Video and audio are powerful teaching supplements. With today's digital campuses, it is now practical to store audio and video digitally and "stream" it to any computer or digital player on campus. The Labstar VS-400 Video Server takes digital media streaming to the next level. With a revolutionary control interface, instructors and administrators can manipulate every aspect of the video/audio streaming experience. Media files can be bookmarked for easy access to key scenes. Students can be allowed or disallowed from watching certain videos or gaining access at certain times of the day. As an optional plug-in for the Genesis language lab system, the Labstar Video Server gives instructors added flexibility in selecting and playing media content for their classes or groups in their classes.

ESL and Foreign Language Learning Software

Modern language courses rely heavily on multimedia content to supplement classroom discussions and lectures. In the language lab or in private sessions, foreign language content software can be used to effectively enhance student learning and long-term retention. Some software titles offer complete coursework for multiple years of language learning. Linguatronics carries a full line of content software covering most languages taught in universities today.

Traditional language laboratories existed in one basic form for over 40 years. They consisted of an instructor's remote monitoring and control console, with individual student tape recorders and headsets located in isolated carrels around a large room.

Computer technology created a paradigm shift in the language lab concept in the early 1990's. Linguatronics was founded upon this new paradigm and was the first system provider to develop completely digital language classrom systems built around modern computers. While traditional language lab system manufacturers continued in the old paradigm for another decade, Linguatronics led the way to new thinking and new solutions with the introduction of Genesis.

Genesis is a software-based language training system that runs on standard Windows computers over a standard local area network. No proprietary hardware is required. Genesis provides all the capabilities and features of traditional hardware-based systems, but because it is software, the costs involved are greatly reduced and the ability to upgrade and grow are greatly simplified.

Many Linguatronics customers have installed 4 or 5 Genesis language classrooms for less than a single traditional language lab would have cost.
