Personal Lexicon 1.1 - Free Download

With Personal Lexicon you'll be able to create a lexicon specifically geared towards the language you're learning. From there you'll add lexical items (words, phrases, or expressions) with corresponding definitions and language specific lexical types (nouns, verbs, etc). You'll also have the option of adding other important information like synonyms, antonyms, conjugation forms, and much more.

By creating themes you'll be able to organize your lexical items in ways that make sense to you. Studying related vocabulary together helps improve memory retention, which is why language textbooks present vocabulary in this way. The difference here is that Personal Lexicon lets you define the groups yourself, giving them extra significance, thereby improving your chances of remembering the vocabulary when it counts.

After you've entered a few lexical items you'll be ready to create tests and pop quizzes. Four different test types along a plethora of configuration options gives you literately hundreds of possible test variations. Tests are stored so they can be taken over and over while quizzes are created on the fly for quick assessment.Both tests and quizzes can be created from themes or from a random set of lexical items.You have full control.

Making memory associations that stick with you is the name of the game when building your vocabulary. One of the best ways to do this is to write sentences using vocabulary items in a context that has particular significance to you. The software allows you to add these personal examples to lexical items and then print them out so they can be checked for proper grammar by your teacher. After making any necessary corrections you'll mark them as 'verified' so that they can be used to create example usage tests. In this way Personal Lexicon also helps you learn grammar as well as vocabulary.

You can also automatically track item difficulty, print items and tests, share data with classmates, & much more.
