RAYMOND LABOS Spanish Foreign Language Department Language Departm nt Advances A recent addition to the foreign language de- partment of KLYHS this year was la modified form of al a language laboratory. A language laboratory is a modern innovation in foreign language teaching and learning. It serves as a valuable teaching aid in the aural-oral approach to modern language learning. This listening laurall and speaking foralj methods of teaching emphasizes two of the most important facets of foreign language learning. With the use of the laboratory the student is able, by use of earphones, to listen to phrases in his particular foreign language after hearing the correct pronoun- ciation repeated several times. He can then elicit his own response into a microphone which records the voice. The instructor then checks his progress by listening to the record- ing. Not only can pronounciation be learned in the laboratory but also by structured grammar and proper reading methods. All these various ramifications of the language laboratory make the learning of a second tongue much more feasible. BEATRICE TANIELIAN, Spanish 27
