Oklahoma State University's Foreign Language Lab Center

The Foreign Language Lab Center is located in rooms 205 and 207 of Gundersen Hall, which is just east of the Student Union. Room 206 is the lab's main office and where all the media is located.

Room 207 is a multimedia/Elice digital language lab available to currently enrolled foreign language students for out-of-class assignments. First year students of French, German, Japanese, Russian and Spanish have required weekly visits to the 207 Lab and each student’s lab attendance is recorded. These students receive a lab orientation to help them with initial log in, lab policies, programs and character-set typing specific to their language study. Students may refer to the course syllabus regarding lab credits for the course in which they are enrolled.

Room 205 is a multimedia lab used predominantly for classes.

Students will find each of our two 28-user labs fully equipped with iMac computers and listening/recording devices. The iMac computers are especially helpful for first and second-year students of French, German, Japanese, Russian and Spanish who are required to purchase language software or online language programs that accompany their textbooks. Students will also find that our iMac computers are specifically designed for their foreign character-set typing and dictation assignments.

For practice, students may want to take advantage of vocabulary building and grammar exercises, play games or view foreign films in the target language. Internet search engines are also installed especially for intermediate and advanced learners to use as resources for information. Students may also take advantage of the listening/recording devices. These are effective tools for comparing their own pronunciation with that of a model speaker.

This state-of-the-art facility is available to all currently enrolled students of foreign languages.
