Description of Course
This course is designed to familiarise staff working with learners using LLL in all aspects of this most popular Minspeak Application Program. Beginning with a brief guide to Minspeak and a very short history of LLL, the main focus is on system architecture, constructing language and implementation issues. By the end of the day, course participants should be using LLL to create their own unique sentences with relative ease.
