Interactive activities and student progress tracking

Automated marking of translation exercises

Our software is able to automatically mark translations and provide immediate feedback to students, correcting errors in grammar and vocabulary. This allows students to improve sentence by sentence as they complete the activity. In this way, errors are quickly addressed and students learn from the corrections before misunderstandings are embedded.

Individualized vocabulary trainer

The Suburani vocabulary trainer provides each student (and their teacher) with both an overview and a detailed analysis of their vocabulary acquisition. Using spaced repetition, the software focuses on the vocabulary which the student needs to practise more, shows when they last logged in, how long they have spent on the trainer, their overall score to date, and precise word-level progress.

Other interactive activities

Each chapter has additional interactive activities including grammar categorization exercises and a verb trainer.

Student progress tracking

Marked activities are visible to teachers, allowing you to set homework and review the students’ marked responses before preparing the next lesson. This approach enables teachers to focus on preparation rather than marking, and plan lessons based on students’ performance.

The software also creates an automated online mark-book for the teacher, which can be downloaded as a spreadsheet.
