Not gamified, but the best language-learning system I've ever used (sorry if total immersion) is the donation-supported Language Transfer.
Intuitive and not just bunch of rote memorization. Made up of roughly 10-minutes audio files, available in YouTube, SoundCloud, or the simple but elegant app.
The languages available are French, German, Italian, Spanish, Greek, Turkish, Arabic, Swahili. All taught by one man, who is Greek-British!
That's exactly right. The proof is quite simple and there's no reason it shouldn't be taught instead of just getting students to accept magic rules.
I went through engineering school, and 20 years of work (not as an engineer), before finding a calculus text that explained why the derivative of x^2 is 2x. Along with many practical applications of calculus.
That book was Calculus Made Simple, published in 1914. Thanks, Project Gutenberg!
Edit: derivative of x^2 is 2x. Got my differentiation and integration confused!
In theory there is little difference between practice and theory. In practice there is.
I know someone who works in a university group related to privacy issues. He refuses to have a smartphone because of the ease which which almost anyone can track you and your activities. I think he has an old flip phone.
It makes more sense to refer to RFK Sr. Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in 1968.
"Whatabout..."
But how much do IP laws actually protect the little guy? When a large corporation can bankrupt me by prolonging litigation until I have nothing left, what leverage do I really have?
There are certainly cases where small creators and inventors were able to overcome this disadvantage, but I suspect that they are the tiny minority, celebrated when they do achieve it.
I'm not sure there has been a president in anyone's lifetime we didn't commit multiple crimes against humanity. Roosevelt had the Japanese internment camps. Kennedy had the Bay of Pigs. Maybe Jimmy Carter was the only one.
I was seeing a lot of crashes two or three years ago, but none in the past year or so.
I guess if you can't rely on human intelligence, you have to hope that artificial intelligence can do the job.
Not Canadian, but European: Language Transfer is the best language learning system you can find. Free, too!
I have used their Spanish course, and it is excellent.
