eyePlorer.com - graphical knowledge engine. - 3 views

    provides immediate access to facts. It visualizes facts as well as relationships between facts. You can also collect, process and publish bits of information. Currently processes the English and German Wikipedia as well as MEDLINE/PubMed. Our approach is inspired by current research results from cognitive science, computational linguistics and neurobiology. We aim at radically improving the way users interact with knowledge and information online. Recent studies show that human thought processes have a strong visual component and that the brain can process images significantly faster than textual information. We are convinced that it is time for innovative, interactive, visual methods of working with and discovering facts and information instead of wading through ever longer lists of documents and search results.

  • There are certain perceived advantages – flexibility, price, personalized learning… but frankly most of the research will show that these are not nearly as important as we might feel.
  • Disadvantages in online language courses are relatively obvious, I think – lack of easy group practice, lack of eye contact, lack of many paralinguistic features which make the possibility of group gelling and real communicative practice much harder than they might be in a face-to-face context.
  • there are plenty of opportunities online for real, meaningful language practice – Second Life with its international communities of native speakers springs to mind here – and these may be much more real and useful than anything that may be achieved in an online classroom.

  • you cannot really learn a language online, but you can improve one.
  • many online courses will give you plenty of practice in the basic skills, few of them have the community side in place to successfully emulate the experience of learning with a group of like-minded people.
  • the social community should be the absolute centre of any school or course, and not something tacked on at the end.
  • People need to get together and talk to each other, to laugh and share and discuss – you simply don’t get this in an online tutorial with a teacher. So yes, by all means have good solid exercises, games and everything else – but don’t bother opening an online school, or engaging in distance language teaching unless you give people a chance to talk to each other.
  • I would be looking for a company that has been around for a while, long enough to prove that what it offers is good enough to survive. I would then be looking at if they are recognized by an institution for the work they do.
  • I’d ask to talk to a real human being at the other end of the phone who could answer my questions in the language of my choice, and I would find out about the organization – who they have working for them, who the writers are, who their big clients are. I’d have a sample class and a sample tutorial.
