Powerspeak Languages Based on the time-tested methods of Linguist, Dr. Robert Blair, Powerspeak Languages uses an arsenal of approaches that combine systematic learning processes with innovative, yet proven, methods in courses tailored specifically to each language. http://www.gale.cengage.com/powerspeak/ Tell Me More TELL ME MORE™ delivers an engaging learning experience that combines the most innovative content with the latest in learning theory and pedagogy while leveraging state of the art technology. The TELL ME MORE™ solution represents over twenty years of research and development investments and is a breakthrough language learning program covering initial language acquisition through mastery. http://www.tellmemore.com/ Byki Available in over 70 languages, Byki is a powerful and personalized language-learning system. It locks foreign language words and phrases into your memory so that you can recall them perfectly and remember them forever. http://www.byki.com/ Mango Languages Mango is a comprehensive online language learning system that teaches real conversation skills for communication. Through fun and engaging interactive lessons, Mango makes learning a language fast, easy and incredibly effective. The system is completely web-based and remotely accessible, so you can learn anywhere you have internet connection. As you listen to and repeat after native speakers, you’ll learn more than just words and phrases. You’ll learn how those pieces can be rearranged and combined to make new thoughts, new conversations and even more practical communication! Mango is not a flashcard system, it is a language learning system. CE: To be determined To register: Go to the Nebraska Library Commission’s  Events & Training Portal.
