A new app has just hit the market place for the Ipad and Ipad2 from Rosetta Stone called Totale Companion HD. The app teaches foreign language kind of like a puzzle. Users can access any foreign language but must have a Rosetta Stone account to use it. The Iphone app has been out for awhile now but this is the new app for the Ipad.When using the software on a desktop or laptop, Rosetta Stone students rely on mousing and clicking, even more so than keyboard input. Removing the mouse and replacing it with actual touch motion makes a lot more sense. A single tap enlarges small contextual images.
Some pages ask you to choose the picture that best represents the word or phrase being spoken, gradually integrating new words that you haven’t learned yet. Other pages display a pattern of different ideas or sentences, and require the user to complete the pattern.
The Rosetta Stone software is really the most interactive foreign language system I have ever seen. I think people will really start using this app tremendously.
