TESOL2 is:
- The advancement in educational technology that will allow individuals to effortlessly learn languages and communicate.
- A new paradigm for linguistic teachers, teaching, and learning, through human-computer symbiosis.
TESOL2 is accomplishable using a brain-computer interface
(BCI), sometimes called a direct
neural interface or a
brain-machine interface, and is a
direct communication pathway
between the brain and an external
device. BCI implants in humans
now exist, designed to restore
damaged hearing, sight, and
movement. The similarity
throughout the research is the
remarkable cortical plasticity of
the brain, which often adapts to
BCIs, treating prostheses
controlled by implants as natural
limbs. With current and future advances in
technology,
scientist could now conceivably
produce BCIs that
would translate speech for
second language communication, acquisition,
or treatment of disease where an
individual requires the
regeneration of speech.
