Strategies for Using Language Learning CDs…

January 10th, 2008 Joseph Chmielewski

Modern high school and college Spanish courses often use a textbook that comes with auxiliary audio and video materials.

Besides increasing the cost of the text book, these materials can add interest and computer interaction (not the same thing as real, person-to-person language interaction, though).

But, carrying these Language Learning CDs is bothersome, particularly when you leave the CD in the CD drive of the computer lab.

Here is what you can do to protect your investment in these Language Learning resources:

  1. Copy the CDs to the hard drive of your computer
  2. Burn copies of the CD, and only carry the copy to class
  3. Burn the entire collection of CDs onto a DVD drive 
  4. Copy the CDs to a USB drive

USB drives continue to fall in price, and a USB drive that holds the contents of two CDs now costs about $20 USD.

Protect your investment and keep the original Language Learning CDs at home.
