VocabBuddy Description:

VocabBuddy is Shareware program for Windows developed by EFLsoft Ltd

Recent thinking in vocabulary teaching is tending towards a dynamic, process-centred approach. Vocabulary learning is being seen more and more as a skill in which responsibility lies with the learner to advance his or her own lexicon. VocabBuddy has been designed with this in mentality.

Teachers often advise learners to grasp notes on vocabulary items that they encounter seeking the first stretch in order to facilitate retention. However, it is consequential to commemorate that the simple undertaking of storing a word--in whatever medium--does not guarantee its retrieval. Factors involved in slight and long-term memorization will arbitrate how affluent and seeking how long learners retain words. The strengths of the VocabBuddy program in this respect are that it allows learners to readily organise vocabulary items into meaningful groups, it increases the integer of exposures learners collect to vocabulary items throughout the exercise of built-in vocabulary games, and it puts the onus on learners to elect which items to collect.

Teachers of EFL recognise that it is arduous to chosen vocabulary items to shield with their classes since learners bear with them widely contrastive vocabulary needs - a dialogue unknown to individual student may affluent be truly familiar to his or her neighbour. Furthermore, investigating has shown that much vocabulary is learned by the students severally throughout reading, and not deliberately, below the instructor's dominate in order.

VocabBuddy aids EFL learners in this endeavour by enabling them to :
-create their own dictionaries of words and phrases each with notes, meanings, examples and pictures
-mark arduous or consequential entries in a Hotlist.
-listen to the pronunciation of any and all text with VocabBuddy's built in access to Microsoft text to articulation technology
