Dashboards
What are they used for?
Different dashboards are available to you. They show learning you’ve completed so far on the platform. These dashboards are like your personal online notebook. The vocabulary items labelled as "learned" are those you’ve played a sufficient number of times to memorise them. The grammar rules dashboard keeps track of the grammar rules you’ve seen (the ones in blue) in the Video Boosters, and provides links to all the Video Boosters featuring that grammar rule. Dashboards can be very useful for revising vocabulary or for finding, reviewing or practicing a specific point of grammar.
What are Challenges?
Good habits are crucial to learning a language efficiently and effectively. In this regard, to get you started on the right foot the site’s online "coach" gives you Challenges - consisting of specific learning tasks you must complete - when you first start learning on Language Academy. These challenges get you in the habit of learning with short but frequent bursts of learning activity.
