Introduction

Rosetta Stone is a fairly new, original technology that uses non-traditional methods to teach foreign languages. Rosetta Stone uses a technique that is designed to imitate the way children learn their first language: through immersion, images, and context (Rosetta Stone Inc, 2010). This language program now provides its service teaching over thirty languages in more than one hundred and fifty countries. In 2005, learning a new language was ranked fourth out of the top ten New Year’s resolutions. (‘Learning a New Language, 2005) Language proficiency has become increasingly important in recent times, not only for job opportunities, but also in social interactions, and international travel. Rosetta Stone is widely used for a number of different purposes including social interaction, professional self-improvement, government use, and traveling purposes. (Rosetta Stone, 2006)
