EXCITING NEWS!
Apart from the coming audio courses, you are now also able to vote for the coming publications! For example, if you donate $1 a month, you get 1 vote for an audio course, and another for publications!
All publications will be available for free PDF download as well as free hard copies with pledges from $10, and donated to schools and libraries!
Some publications -like those mostly relying on volunteer work- will come anyway (translated lyrics and vocabulary) others that require much more time, will be voted for by the usership!
Here are the current choices, the first publication will be announced once we reach the $800 milestone:
1. TRANSFER TO GREEK SCRIPT: A guide to reading and writing in Greek, paying special attention to variations in handwriting, the shared history of the English (Latin) and Greek scripts, as well as variations in handwriting.
2. TRANSFER TO ARABIC SCRIPT: A guide to reading and writing in Arabic, paying special attention to variations in handwriting, the shared history of the English (Latin) and Arabic scripts, as well as variations in handwriting.
3. THE THINKING METHOD: Due to the ever increasing requests for information about course writing and teaching, the 'Thinking Method' book was conceived. In this publication the reader will be lead through the entire process of dissecting a language and rebuilding it into a course, in a practical manner with illustrative examples from existing courses. The book will also contain a section specifically geared at teaching in a live context using the methodology/transcripts from existing courses. This publication aims at getting more people creating courses and teaching with the method, it greatly increases the potential of the project and possibilities of adding more course writers to the team!
4-7. TRANSLATED SHORT STORIES: For all of our Complete courses (finished or otherwise, currently Spanish (4), German (5), Greek (6), Swahili (7)), we'll hold a literary competition to compile a set of short stories with unique, elaborated and highly learner-useful translations.
To vote, comment with the name/number of the publication below. (This does not effect your votes for audio courses.)
All the best and thank you for helping create this awesome project! :)
