Rosetta Stone FAQ
- SCEE will create for each school, DE or home school provider a Group within our Rosetta Stone Classroom environment. SCEE will register the learners and assign them to the schools group.
- For each group the school or provider can nominate an administrator for that group. The group administrator will have the ability to view all learners in their group and reports for those learners. They will also be able to customise the curriculum if desired.
- Each license is valid for 12 months from the date the learner is registered.
- Each license is for one student and one language.
- SCEE has not imposed any level restrictions; each license will have access to whatever levels are available for the selected language.

As many Levels as that language has available.
Yes, just keep in mind that the 12 months begins when the license is activated, so you might recommend that they continue using it during the holidays (it’s fun to use so that shouldn’t be too much trouble).
Rosetta Stone can be used K-12. For younger learners the curriculum can be customised to suit by an administrator.
Currently we expect that 1 Credit will be awarded per 2 levels completed. SCEE staff are still working out details for work beyond the first credit.
- They could, although it is designed for individual learning.
- It would not be suitable where credits for a certificate are desired.
Each student would have a profile that they work with independently, providing tracking of the students work and results. When the class meets as a group the teacher would have a profile to use (with a customised curriculum ideally) to review and re-enforce work covered.
- Rosetta Stone will be covered in the next Southern Cross Educational Enterprises Ltd. Scope and Sequence.

Each Level is divided into 4 units, each unit consists of about 30 lessons (approximate times: core lessons 30 minutes, other lessons 5 – 15 minutes).
This is the default settings only, the content can be customised by an administrator.
There is a contact support option in Rosetta Stone Classroom portal.
While the answer to this question depends on the age a student is introduced to the language, we can assume that a typical student may commence in Year 7 or 8 – at least in terms of recording progress towards credit attainment. Such a student reaching the end of level 5 in a language should be approaching the end of level/grade 10. However, a number of variables could influence this broad outline. It is also possible for brighter students to complete the material earlier while others may continue on in their senior years.

Rosetta Stone uses a style of instruction called “immersion methodology”. Lessons are presented entirely in the language you are learning. There are no instructions or parallel English translations. This is a deliberate learning technique that has been adopted to help the learner adapt to the new language as quickly as possible. Millions of users worldwide have already demonstrated the effectiveness of this approach in language learning. Immersion is a natural method for children and adults to learn language. As with any language program, additional aids such as direct person-to-person communication, cultural exposure, and further studies will enhance the learning experience.
