A forefen lane lab, desired to give UNL students
maximum exposure to the lansaaje they are studying,
begins operation this week.
According to Ilans G2de, lab director, the more
contact students have with a Janjaazt, the easier it is for
them to learn it.
The-lab wi3 enable students to do just that, he said,
because of its sire and flexible schedule. The lab has 60
separate, stations, each with its own tape recorder and
headphones. The lab ty21 be open 40 hours a week and
students can use it airy time during that period, he said.
The $20,000 lab replaces two other labs, each about 20
years old. One of the old labs was for the Romance
languages and one for the Germanic languages, but the
two wfl share the new lab. Conrglni-g the labs will make
it more efficient and economical to run, according to
university officials.
James Van Horn, director of budget and faculties for
the College of Arts and Sciences, said the school reduced
the number of rooms and personnel needed to run the
labs by combining them. The new lab is larger than either
of the older labs, enabling the department to serve more
students at one time, he sakl.
The new system abo allows ttittits studying a variety
of languages to use the lab at one time. The new lab is
equipped for ttvtdentt studying Spanish, French, German,
Czech, Russian, Italian, Swedii and Japanese.
The lab's new equipment enables the ftvdtrA to do
a variety of things he hasn't been able to do before,
G2de said. Because students have their own Upts, they
can repeat difficult parts of the lesson and can record
their responses to questions to compare their voices with
native speakers, he said.
Because the new system uses cassette Upss instead of
reel-to-reel, students can take the tapes home, he said.
