What is Languagelab?

Languagelab is about life-based language learning. Students can use all the learning resources of a whole new world using a virtual body, called an ‘avatar’, that can move around, talk and listen to others - all real people. Some will be teachers, some will be other students, and still others will be native speakers; all will be there together to learn or to facilitate learning. We are currently offering English with Spanish coming soon. We will be expanding to other languages after that.

Languagelab is built on a virtual platform called Second Life that has substantial computer requirements. During the registration process you will be asked certain questions to determine if your system is compatible. Most newer computers with good graphics cards will meet these requirements.

Languagelab makes special use of the Second Life voice system that enables participants to speak and listen to one another in real time, both individually or as a group.

At the moment we are running our Beta test where we invite participants to use the service free of charge. In return, we ask for feedback on what needs to be improved. Currently we are offering classes in English with Spanish coming soon. More languages will be available in the near future.
