Personas for Language Learning
We use personas to define the scope and target audience for our applications. The following personas specifically apply to language learning applications. Since learning is a continuous process where we expect a user to become more proficient, we use the following approach
- a persona defines the characteristics of a user group
- the proficiency a user is given by the states A, B, and C, according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages
Personas
- professional user who is very motivated to learn a new language (e.g. for job)
- hobby-user: somebody who hase time to learn a language and does so, since she/he maybe wants to be able to speak basic phrases in the next holidays
- student: somebody who has to fulfill demands of teachers/pass exams
There are more possible target groups (e.g. learning in class) but currently out of scope.
Proficiency Levels
We define a coarse set of CEFR inspired levels. A level describes what a learner is supposed to be able to do in reading, listening, speaking and writing.
