Vokabeltrainer - Cornelsen 8.1.15

The Cornelsen Vocabulary Trainer offers a digital enhancement to traditional study methods, effectively bridging the gap between analog materials and modern educational technology. This app provides students with an engaging platform to learn vocabulary that extends beyond just exam preparation or travel needs.

Within the Vocabulary Trainer app, users will find the vocabulary directly aligned with their Cornelsen textbooks. The platform offers diverse exercises that make learning enjoyable. Students can easily add the necessary vocabulary packages, enabling session-specific training that corresponds precisely with their textbooks.

The app categorizes training into three distinct levels: "Warm-Up," "Training," and "Mastery." Each progressive level introduces increased difficulty, fostering motivation for continued improvement. Users also have the flexibility to assess their own proficiency and choose a higher level if they feel ready, or switch within exercises to tailor their learning experience.

A noteworthy feature is the opportunity to initially test vocabulary and verb packages for free before committing to a purchase of the full app, available for a nominal fee of up to €7.99.

Here’s a breakdown of how the app functions:

1. Warm-Up: This introductory phase allows users to familiarize themselves with vocabulary through flashcards, emphasizing pronunciation by encouraging sound activation on devices. Students can adjust difficulty levels and engage with supplementary information.
2. Training: Following the warm-up, users prepare for mastery by predicting translations and evaluating their own understanding. Vocabulary that poses challenges is automatically revisited, ensuring comprehensive learning.
3. Mastery: The final stage requires users to write vocabulary from memory. Should a mistake occur, repetition ensures mastery until all items are learned. Progress tracking allows users to celebrate their achievements with a certificate upon successful completion.
