Abstract
Partly because of the technological innovations it incorporates and partly because of its marketing success, the instructional software program Learn to Speak German1 has attracted unusually broad attention for an introductory German course, with reviews and notices in such unaccustomed organs as Newsweek, Business Week, Multimedia World, and Good Morning, America.2 Because the course is marketed to a general audience and is designed for independent learning, careful attention was given in its construction to support a broad set of learning styles and teaching methods, since its users could not be assumed to follow or prefer any one language learning method or theory.
