Learning Tools - Language Pronunciation Tool The authored component is a digitally recorded question-and-answer set. The aim of this advanced tool is to ask students particular context questions such as "What time did James arrive home from the airport" for which students will have to answer orally into a microphone i.e. "James arrived home from the airport at 6:30." The student receives the correct answer through his/her headphones (authored by the instructor), which is juxtaposed against the student's answer. This tool offers direct learning enhancement by allowing instructors to create their own oral component in any given language. Choose any language and create a question-answer database Voice recording and playback for pronunciation and comprehension Excellent for tonal language practice such as Mandarin or Cantonese Excellent for integrating an oral component into a language syllabus Language pronunciation tool: demo
Tiger tesl YouTube punishes Logan Paul over Japan suicide video Media playback is unsupported on your device YouTube has cut some business ties with Logan Paul, the hugely popular vlogger who posted a video showing the body of an apparent suicide victim in Japan. Paul's channels were removed from YouTube's Google Preferred programme, where brands sell ads on the platform's top 5% of content creators. YouTube also said it had put on hold original projects with the US vlogger. Paul posted the video with a man's body on 31 December, triggering widespread criticism. What is YouTube punishing Logan Paul for? The video showed Paul and his friends at the Aokigahara forest at the base of Mount Fuji, known to be a frequent site of suicides. Going in to film the "haunted" forest, they come across a man's body and are shocked but also make jokes. The identity of the deceased man is not known. Paul later posted an apology on Twitter, saying he had been "misguided by shock and awe". Image copyright YOUTUBE/Logan Paul "I'm ashamed of myself," he added.
