Using PowerPoint Live for Learners who speak different languages

-

English Language Learners Teacher Simon Purvis uses PowerPoint Live to support learning in his classes. Students use their smartphone to log in to a PowerPoint Live session, Simon then speaks in a language of his choice, and PowerPoint Live translates his spoken words in to a language of the student's choice. Using a new conference call microphone, feedback from Simon, the class interpreter and the students shows that the accuracy of PowerPoint Live is excellent.

In a recent class Simon spoke English and Portugese and PowerPoint Live interpreted all words in to Chinese with great accuracy.
