Abstract

A method for peer-to-peer learning of a common language by a plurality of students. A first student selected from the plurality of students acts as a speaker in the common language with a second student selected from the plurality of students acting as a speller. A word-deck is generated for use by the student-group. The word-deck includes a plurality of words that are selected because they are related to another word, respectively, found in the common language based on a phonetic similarity between the respective words. The first student is provided with a word selected from the plurality of words included in the word-deck where the word has a correct spelling. An audio output is provided to the second student where the audio output includes the word as spoken by the first student. An entry includes a spelling of the word as spelled by the second student following a receipt of the audio output. If the spelling of the word matches the correct spelling of the word, a score for the student-group is improved.
