Speaking in Tongues

A program that tells the speaker if he or she has a Spanish or American accent? GET OUTA TOWN!!! It's true ladies and gents, the Schuylkill Valley Middle school has a program that, through the super duper powers of voice recognition, can actually tell the speaker how accurate his or her accent is. There were obviously some flaws however. A native speaker of Spanish was detected as more American than most of the non-native speakers in the class. It proved to be quite a spectical in the technologically advanced classroom. All of those youngsters were bubbling with enthusiam to try that intense tool of techno teaching!
