Make practice purposeful

01

Set a small goal

Choose one feature to examine: a sound contrast, a segment of intonation or the structure of a source message.

02

Work with a short sample

Listen, annotate or interpret the selected material. Use recording only where permitted and appropriate.

03

Review the evidence

Compare your work with the task criteria and decide what you will change in the next attempt.

Laboratory guides and documents

Download the current laboratory rules and blank forms in PDF. The Documents section also provides the AudytorLAB and Mentor ADVANCED reference manuals. For guidance on the installed setup, contact the Head of the Laboratory. Course materials and submission instructions are provided by the course lecturer.

A link to an external tool does not imply that it is installed on every laboratory workstation. Please check the setup needed for your session.
