&gt; Subject: [support-gang] Language Learning Courseware<br>
&gt; To: Laptop Support &lt;<a href="mailto:support-gang@laptop.org">support-gang@laptop.org</a>&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I am developing courseware (a complete methodology) that utilizes Sugar<br>
&gt; (primarily the collaboration - mesh networking features) to learn<br>
&gt; languages.  I have recently found someone to help me with Arabic and so now<br>
&gt; I am working on Arabic-English and Spanish-English.  I am interested in<br>
&gt; using the International Phonetic Alphabet for some of the work.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I would like to have some software that can evaluate spoken language to<br>
&gt; check for pronunciation.  When I purchased some Spanish learning software<br>
&gt; years ago that was one of the features.  Obviously, I am looking for open<br>
&gt; source software.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; In addition, any advice on software tools for the courseware will be<br>
&gt; appreciated.<br>

<br>
this sounds like an awesome project. I have found the following<br>
