Educational apps(软件) are becoming more and more popular to help people learn, and they are sometimes even considered as a way to take the place of traditional education. But apps, just like textbooks and language lessons, are a medium(媒介). The way you use them will influence how successful you are. So how do you make sure you get the most out of your app, and what should you consider before deciding to use it?
Here's what you should think about:
1）Learn from different sources(来源）(not just apps)
The beauty of being good at a language is the world which it opens up to you. This is a world of different sources of information, from newspapers and books to TV, radio, music and, yes, even real people.
2）Set your purpose and plan your habits
The good apps are programmed to help you fit your studies around your timetable. These apps encourage habit building, because the successful formation of a habit make sure of your safe and regular return.
3）Remember that an app is just a tool
App developers have made educational apps interesting as game apps to keep you learning! Seldom will you have heard someone bent over a textbook say, "I'm in deep love with learning English!" So, never forget your purpose. It wasn't to complete level five; it was toshoot the breezewith the local people.
4）________________
Find a friend to be with you. Attend an evening class. Borrow a book. Buy a book. Book a week away and attend a language school. Just don't forget your phone! The combination (结合)of app, language school, evenings out, a friend and a choice book or two turns out to be really satisfying.
