Student Management System (Version 2)

Rosetta Stone Homeschool Version 2 comes complete with the Student Management System (SMS). These useful tools allow parents to effectively plan lessons, follow student progress and generate reports.

Lesson Planning

Teaching a foreign language can be a daunting task for many parents. Rosetta Stone can help parents overcome the hurdle of lesson planning, giving them the tools they need to teach an effective foreign language course, even without knowledge of the language being learnt. Create your own lesson plans to match your student’s language learning objectives or choose from two preloaded lesson plans. A simple setup wizard helps parents create student usernames and passwords and register them onto their desired lesson plan. The two lesson plans are as follows:

Comprehensive Lesson Track

The Comprehensive Lesson Track guides students through our core foreign language curriculum. This lesson track includes seven exercises and three tests in each lesson, providing students with thorough instruction to help them improve their language skills.

Accelerated Lesson Track

The Accelerated Lesson Track contains four exercises and two tests per lesson and is ideal for students who want to advance more quickly through the programme, while still receiving instruction in all language skills.

Testing

Methods for testing your child are simple to set up and flexible. As they work through the course, students automatically advance from exercise to tests. At this stage they must achieve a predetermined proficiency level in order to move on. If the student does not achieve that level, the test is repeated until the level is achieved.

Parents can adjust these proficiency levels in the Accelerated and Comprehensive tracks, and also when building their own lessons plans.

Reporting

The Student Management System lets parents manage and monitor their student’s results. They can also use this data to compile easy-to-read reports that cover:

• Student's current lesson track
• Lessons completed
• Test scores
• Time spent on activities
• Status of lesson based on proficiency level achieved
• Date and time exercises were completed

The Handbook for Teachers included with every Rosetta Stone Homeschool Version 2 provides more information on lesson planning, testing, and reporting as well as sample schedules and cultural activities.
