BIRD SCHOLAR Canada Edition provides a highly structured environment for learning the songs of 475 birds.
Three page views allow the user to inspect regional libraries of bird songs, learn songs through multiple choice interactions, and test the accuracy of identification by taking a 20 question BIRD SCHOLAR exam. Separate libraries can be selected to emphasize forest, grassland, marsh, predatory, shore and lake birds. A Favorites Library can be compiled to focus the learning experience on any limited set of birds.
The app is a particularly powerful tool for teaching bird songs to young children, which we believe is related to a childs exceptional ability to learn human languages.
Detailed instructions can be found on the BIRD SCHOLAR Canada Edition website: (www.oldcarriagebrewery.com/birdscholar.html).
The initial free download provides access to 50 randomly selected birds. Potential users are encouraged to begin their learning experience by exploring this free version of the application. The full functionality of BIRD SCHOLAR can be accessed by purchasing the Library Expansion Pack, which will open the complete library of 475 birds.
