New Rosetta Stone® German Levels 1-5 (Five Levels) Version 3 Homeschool Edition with
Audio CompanionTM
and Free Headset
 
 
We are thrilled to include Rosetta Stone's latest breakthrough in innovative language learning in all our V3 Rosetta Stone® sets!  Audio Companion™ CDs reinforce language learning anytime, anyplace. Students will acquire new skills on the computer, and then reinforce them with Audio Companion. Simply play the CDs on a CD player or download to an MP3 player.
 
 
Enhance the learning experience
    Audio Companion activities correspond to Rosetta Stone computer-based lessons. Listen to Audio Companion and practice the content learned on the computer, turning travel time into productive language learning time.
 
Extend study time
     Ambitious and advanced learners don’t have to stop when they complete their computer lessons with Rosetta Stone. Audio Companion lets them access lessons whenever and wherever they want.
 
Build vocabulary and pronounce words and phrases
     Audio Companion features distinct words and shorter phrases to make them easier to hear and repeat. Students will build good enunciation habits by hearing native speakers pronounce new vocabulary first.
 
Speak and converse
     The speaking portion of Audio Companion lets learners listen to questions and answers, repeating them to use later. To help them build conversational skills, first they will listen to a conversation and then repeat phrases individually.
 
 
 
~FAQs about this listing~
 
Is the Homeschool edition just for students?
 
No! The Homeschool edition covers the same language content as the Personal edition, in the same order, at the same pace. The Homeschool edition is not a juvenile program.
 
 
What’s the difference between the Version 3 Homeschool edition and the Version 4 (TOTALe) Personal edition?
 
The core teaching software is the same in both versions. V4 (TOTALe) includes a one-person subscription to some additional online components. The duration of the subscription varies (3 to 15 months) depending on which bundle is purchased. These extra components are online studio coaching sessions, an iPhone app, and online games and activities. (Rosetta Stone also offers online games and activities FREE at www.rworld.com.) The V3 Homeschool edition can be installed on 2 computers, each of which will accommodate up to 5 users, for a total student capacity of 10 users. V4 can only be installed on one computer. For Spanish, English, German, and French, the V3 Homeschool edition includes print-on-demand workbook pages, as well as quizzes and tests, so learners can put pencil to paper in the target language if they wish. Finally, the V3 Homeschool edition includes a Parents’ Guide and an additional Activation Card which unlocks extra administrative features.
 
 
Is the Homeschool edition available in V4 (TOTALe)?
 
No. Because of the security risks involved with minors interacting online, young learners are not permitted to access the online components. For this reason, they have not been added to the Homeschool edition.
 
 
This isn't exactly the Rosetta Stone product I'm looking for.  Do you sell other sets?
 
Yes, we carry the full line of Rosetta Stone Homeschool products.  If you need a different set of levels or a different language, please visit our eBay Store. If you don't see what you need, let us know and we'll list it on eBay for you.
 
 
I'm still not sure exactly what the Audio Companion is. Can you clarify?
 
The Audio Companion is a set of audio CDs that can be played on a regular CD player (such as in a car stereo system) or downloaded to an MP3 player.  They provide additional drill on the development of listening and speaking skills in a portable format.  No new content is introduced in the Audio Companion. Rather, it gives extra practice related to specific Rosetta Stone lessons.  The Audio Companion helps learners formulate responses spontaneously (based on what they’ve learned with the software), which prepares  them for real-time dialogue in the target language. You simply play the CD, listen, and respond verbally.

    I would like for several family members to use this software.  Is that possible?
     
    Yes, setting up multiple users is very simple, and each user can have a custom-created course, based on his or her goals and abilities.  Everyone logs in under a unique user name, and the software records activity and progress for each user separately.  In the context of a homeschool situation, a parent can easily log in to each student's record to view student progress and performance.

    Rosetta Stone's Technology:

    Vivid photographic images and the voices of native speakers lead learners to think in the target language, rather than just translate words on a page. Vocabulary and grammar are taught hand-in-hand through engaging activities, and students use their intuition to grasp new concepts.

     

     

    Students improve their pronunciation through guided activities—sometimes one syllable at a time, sometimes by speaking phrases and sentences fluidly.  Native speakers model correct pronunciation, and advanced voice recognition technology provides instant feedback on student performance.

     

     

    Milestone activities at the end of each unit present real-life scenarios that allow students to participate in a conversation.  Prompted by a sequence of images and dialogue, students formulate their own questions and answers based on what they’ve learned in the unit.

     

     

    Rosetta Stone is easy to use and simple to navigate. Students are automatically led from one activity to the next, and the Adaptive RecallTM  feature provides built-in review of previously learned concepts. Student records, course scope and sequence, and scheduled activities can all be viewed at a glance.
