Duolingo

A language learning website that uses gaming to keep learners motivated.  Easy to navigate lessons are personalized, immediate feedback is provided, "rewards" are handed out as levels are mastered.  Can be used for independent practice, or in a lab setting. The learning program is based on language-acquisition research and makes the claim:  "34 hours of Duolingo are equal to 1 university semester of language courses".

This site may also be of interest to teachers interested in acquiring another language.  There are 33 languages to choose from, including Klingon - not kidding!
