the English for All homepage and follow the download or install instructions.
You must have a fairly new computer and some plug-ins (small programs
you download from the Internet) as well as a very fast Internet connection
or the English for All CD-ROMs for the videos to work properly. You
can get a complete set of English For All videos for use at your site.
The CD-ROM version, on 5 CDs, is $28 plus tax and shipping. The DVD version, on 5 DVDs, is $50 plus tax and shipping.
Order your video set online, using OTAN's secure online system. Simply select English For All Video Collection in the OTAN Product Catalog and follow the instructions.
You cannot use the CD-ROMs to view the videos alone; you must use
the CD-ROM while using the English for All Web site. Insert the CD-ROM
that has the episode you want to see into your computer's CD-ROM drive
before you go on the Internet to the English for All Wesite. The CD-ROM
will open your Internet browser and take you to the English for All
Web site automatically. The videos will play from the CD-ROM as you
use the English for All Web site.
English For All videos are now available in two formats: CD-ROM and DVD.
The CD-ROM version, on 5 CDs, is $28 plus tax and shipping. The DVD version, on 5 DVDs, is $50 plus tax and shipping.
Order your video set online, using OTAN's secure online system. Simply select English For All Video Collection in the OTAN Product Catalog and follow the instructions.
English For All is used by people with many different first languages,
so it would be very hard to provide help and instructions in so many
languages. Also, most teachers want their students to learn and practice
English and they prefer that their students learn to read the instructions
in English. There is a word translator on the site to help translate
English words into other languages and we will soon be adding a link
to an English Dictionary.
Use the translator from Babylon.com in the main menu bar at the
top of the student pages: Type the
English word into the first box, select the language you want from
the dropdown list, then click on the 'Go!' button. A new window will
open with the translation.
If you are registered as a teacher, sign in using your teacher sign-in
name and password. Click on 'Teacher Guide' in the main menu at the
top of the teacher's homepage. Select the desired guide by clicking
on the name of the document. The guide will be displayed in Adobe Acrobat
Reader, and can be easily printed. Note: You must have the Adobe Acrobat
Reader plug-in to get the guide. If you do not have it, you can download
it free by clicking on the 'Get Acrobat Reader' graphic at the bottom
of the Teacher Guide page. Click
here to go to the Teacher Guide page.
Sign in as a teacher, select 'Print Materials' from the main menu
bar. In the table, click on the file type (PDF or RTF) you want for
the episode you want. (PDF for printing, RTF for modifying). Click
here to go to the Print Materials page.
Sign in as a teacher and select 'Email List' from the main menu
bar at the top to the teacher's homepage. Follow the instructions to
sign up for teacher's email list discussion group.
Type the
English word into the first box, select the language you want from
the dropdown list, then click on the 'Go!' button. A new window will
open with the translation.
