Description

Kazoo Studios developed this CD-ROM for the University of Victoria’s English Language Centre in the Division of Continuing Studies to help “English as a Second Language” (ESL) students improve their English language proficiency.

The CD-ROM demonstrates North American cultural norms in a variety of social settings (via video, audio, and written stories) and provides numerous interactive exercises to test student comprehension.
