MAEL Phrases

"MAEL Phrases" (Multi-App pour l'Aide à l'Enseignement des Langues : multi app for language teaching assistance) allows teachers to put their students in the position of being able to create phrases.

Principle of operation

The learner has access to a library of images organised by category. Each category is organised into several themes.

To listen to words

Each image is associated with a word (according to the chosen language). The student listens to a word by clicking on it.

To create sentences

The student drags and drops images into an area to create a sentence. When finished, he presses a button and a sentence is generated (most likely). Then the application pronounces the sentence.
