German, Spanish taught Use of English 'outlawed' at institute By Charleen McGuire Student Writer In an attempt to increase conversational skills in foreign languages, the department of Foreign Languages at Central State University is offering three Total Immersion Institutes in Spanish and German this summer. The institutes are scheduled to take place at Fountainhead Resort, Lake Eufaula. A beginning Spanish institute will be held the same time as the German institute June 29 through July 1. An advanced Spanish course is schelduled for June 18-24.
All are one-credit courses and participants will have to pay the cost of room and board, which will amount to $80, said Dr. Gerhard Kallienke, assistant professor of foreign languages at CSU. This is the first time the institute will be offered for German language students. In previous semesters the Spanish language program at CSU has conducted similar courses for Spanish students. The German Immersion Institute is open to all those who have a working knowledge of German. Kallienke stressed familiarity instead of fluency as a necessary pre-condition for enrollment.

"The idea is to be totally immersed in the language and know how it feels to be in a totally German-speaking environment," said Kallienke, who is conducting the institute. "The participants will be expected to speak German at all times. Even when addressing the waiters they will be expected to use German or sign language, but no other language will be permitted." Many activities are planned for the participants, including a walk through the woods and playing German games, Kallienke said. Students will receive in advance a vocabulary list of terms and phrases relating to things they might encounter. Kallienke said there will be a large number of participants and he expects many high school German language teachers to enroll. "Most high school teachers are good in their grammar, but somewhat lacking in German conversational skills," Kallienke said. "This institute is designed with the intention of honing their German conversational abilities in order to make them more effective teachers," he said.

"KAPLAN
computer lab of the Liberal Arts Building. The discussion was an attempt to de-mystify the lab by demonstrating the Music department's new $15,000 music system. The system includes a Macintosh computer, keyboard, sampler, synthesizer and three computer programs-the Composer, Performer and the Editor-Librarian. "You can type in music on the keyboard, which is a word processor for music," said Magrill. "The computer allows you to compose as well as use already written music." The two programs, Composer and Performer, can interact. Students can play music through the computer, and it will remember, Magrill said. Students can play another track with it, and the cornputer can harmonize with it. Music can also be edited in real time or step time.
The other program, EditorLibrarian, allows students to create new sounds. There are 128 possibilities. The computer can produce up to 64 sounds, shuffle them and make 64 completely new sounds and variations from original sounds, Magrill said. My interest is to explore the computer as an instrument in itself," Magrill said. "We need to educate students on the proper uses. The pop music field has been using the computer for some time." The good thing about CSU's equipment is that it is cost efficient, mainly because of the minicomputer, Magrill said. Until recently, colleges had to use large computer systems which were costly and became outdated with technological advances, Magrill said.
