"Oneshotvoca develops new method for vocabulary learning

The company has patented a unique way of memorizing vocabulary, called "blinking method" because it enables learners to learn many new words in the blink of an eye.

The secret of this innovative method is GP2X, an open-source gaming console and media player that facilitates learning by twinkling lights on its LCD screen while target words and idioms are displayed. According to the company, the method was designed to help average learners memorize 100 new words within one hour, and has been used by more than 300 schools and institutes of the country.

The company is currently working on diversifying learning materials that can be used by the gadget. "Memorizing vocabulary is only the beginning of learning languages.

You should minimize the time spent on it to maximize time spent for reading," said Lim Hyung-taek, president of the company's online service firm vocamaster.com. "

ROFL, i find this funny, and slightly intelligent... give the kids a learning device that can teach 'em 100 words an hour, and play Neo Geo games, simply genius

Jarska333 kun, my Japanese is so limited, what does "Nanika tabetaides" stand for? smile.gif
Alex.
So they memorize words via blinking lights? How about picking up a book and a dictionary instead, or surfing English news sites like Yahoo, or watching English movies? That's what did the trick for me, seizure-free too :)
