DLLC – Academic Experience (AE) 2024
On September 3rd to 5th, 2024, DLLC participated in Academic Experience (AE) program which is a part of the Freshmen Year Program (FYP) at Binus University. AE program provides an exciting opportunity for new students to familiarize themselves with university life, departments/units in Binus, and most importantly, some interesting academic tools that will enhance their learning experience. One of the key highlights was DLLC’s introduction to Beelingua, a powerful language learning platform designed to help students build their language skills effectively and engagingly.
Beelingua is a digital language learning tool that offers an interactive and immersive way to master foreign languages such as English, Japanese and Mandarin. The platform combines reading, listening, and pronunciation exercises to make language acquisition both fun and effective. With access to various language learning materials—from simple reading materials to daily life conversations—Beelingua offers an adaptable approach for students of all proficiency levels.
For the new students of Binus University, attending the DLLC section of AE 2024 event was crucial for several reasons. Firstly, it is to introduce to Beelingua as a mandatory language learning platform. As a global university, Binus University recognizes the importance of language proficiency in academic success and career opportunities. Students were introduced to Beelingua and learned how this platform can support their language learning journey. It wasn’t just about using the tool; it was about understanding how to maximize its potential to enhance their language skills, making it an indispensable resource for every student.
Second reason is to introduce the features of Beelingua, or to put it more detail, is to engage better with this interactive learning platform. One of Beelingua’s standout features is its interactive format, which engages students in a more dynamic way than traditional language learning methods. During AE, students learned how to utilize readings materials, audio, and pronunciation practice features that encourage active learning. This method makes language study feel more like a fun activity than a chore, which helps improve retention and fluency.
Third reason is the personalized and flexible learning experience in Beelingua. This personalized learning approach allows students to tailor their learning journey according to their needs. Whether you want to practice speaking, improve your writing, or focus on reading comprehension, Beelingua may adapts to your goals. During AE, DLLC team gave new students the opportunity to explore these customizable features, helping them start their language-learning experience on the right foot. Not just that, Beelingua is also accessible on a variety of devices, including smartphones, tablets, and computers. This means students can practice their language skills wherever they are—on the bus, at home, or between classes. AE highlighted how this flexibility allows students to incorporate language learning seamlessly into their busy schedules.
Finally, AE also inform the importance of Beelingua to maximize their academic journey. Attending the AE event was not just about understanding how to use Beelingua—it was about learning how to leverage this tool to excel in academic and personal growth. Since utilizing Beelingua is a mandatory for the internship program, DLLC also gave the new students a chance to dive deep into the platform’s features, showing them how Beelingua could complement their coursework, improve their language proficiency, and help them connect with flow of Binus University’s learning experience.
Overall, for students who missed AE, it’s not too late to explore Beelingua and unlock its many benefits.
