051: Can technology help you learn a language? (1/2)

In this episode, myself and Luca Lampariello discuss the question: "Can technology help you learn a language?" This is a conversation in two parts. For the second half of the discussion, see episode 52.

In this episode:
  • What Luca's friends told him about their technology habits
  • Can Duolingo and other language apps help?
  • Gamification can help get people started in language learning, but is this a good thing?
  • Can you focus on learning when technology is involved?
  • What was language learning like before the internet?
  • The difficulty of finding language resources before the internet came along
