Duolingo & Memrise | Have Fun!

Hi everyone!

I know that vocabulary learning is a big thing most of the people because with traditional techniques it’s so boring. However, technology brings its benefits with itself and gives us different opportunities to learn languages. Today, want to talk about two different application I found very useful.

Firstly, I’m gonna talk about Duolingo. It’s an application within which you can find different languages to learn. If you ask why Duolingo, I would say that it’s not boring and old school. Today, we don’t like anything that brings the need of vomiting, also anything that is boring won’t help you to learn something because your motivation will be much lower each day. In a nutshell, please try it and inform me on your thoughts.

Secondly, Memrise would be a good choice to work on. Memrise simply the same thing with Duolingo but there is one thing that made my mind blown. That thing is the camera detection system of Memrise. You can hold your phone to any object and it shows you it’s name and meaning. Of course, sometimes, it makes wrong assumptions but we cannot deny its usefulness. Please give it a try!

I should accept that those all have an influence on education but there is one thing better, more modern, and more real, which is Virtual Reality (VR). Before any bias, let's just think about it. Most of the parents, even many teachers, think that games are nonsense and couldn't have any good effect on their child or any learner; nevertheless, they all wrong at one point. Games may take time to apply but they have no harm to people as long as they or their parents know how to use it appropriately. Researches show that games do harm only a small part of society whic...
