Students can interact with any audio or video file using their voice

This is one of the most unique features of Sanako Connect. Our dedicated recording feature for language teaching allows you to take any existing audio or video file and have your students to use our two-track recording function to interact with the original material.

The most common use cases for this feature are consecutive and simultaneous interpreting, video interviews, and spontaneous speaking practice.

How can you use interactive video and audio tasks in your language teaching?

Consecutive and simultaneous interpreting training

Our two-track recording allows you to create both types of interpreting training activities. With simultaneous interpreting your students record a second track along the original track, and when practicing consecutive interpreting they use the voice insert function to create new gaps into the original track.

Develop your students’ spontaneous speaking skills

As you can use any audio or video files for creating interactive tasks, you can create tailored and engaging activities for your students. They can just watch and listen to the original material and spontaneously respond to what they see and hear, based on your instruction.

Give time-coded and precise feedback

All student’s recordings are available for you to review on the same platform without the need to download them. Our unique feedback feature allows you to insert time-coded text or recorded feedback directly into the selected moments in the student’s audio response.
