![]() ![]() Please leave a comment below about your thoughts on what languages you’d like to see in the future from any linguistic platform. If Duolingo is reading this, I would enjoy a collaboration or a Zoom coffee break meet-up. Lastly, I am not receiving any endorsement for this post from Duolingo nor from any other entity. Among many factors, they look at the volunteers’ quantity and quality, general interest, etc. However, it does not share which languages they are interested in adding next. Use key words to search for how to make the course and what it takes to see a course through. What is Duolingo looking for? That’s the question, isn’t it? The company does a good job providing an overview on the blog. Some courses are no longer in production: Swedish for Turkish speakers, Hindi for Bulgarian speakers, English for Hebrew speakers, & Hindi for Gujarati speakers. Two courses hatched out of incubation: Finnish for English speakers & German for Dutch speakers. Yes, 6 out of 17 courses had 0 contributors when I made my note. However, I can note approximately how close to completion certain courses were. I didn’t track the anticipated release date at that time. Target LanguageĬhart from the Duolingo Incubator as of. The asterisk means that the course was still being developed according to the chart farther done on. The release date is what the volunteers had previously anticipated for the course to be public. Contributors are the volunteers working on the course, although some freelancers are hired to keep courses going. However, some volunteers have changed the ETA (estimated time of arrival) of the finished product. Several courses initially gave the impression that they will be completed soon. The Incubator currently has 22 total courses being developed (not yet in Beta). Hence the importance of these charts.īelow is a table from. Unlike other websites which have internet archives, I am unable to locate any for Duolingo’s Incubator. Thus, I am sharing the charts to keep a close eye on progress. I am curious about how courses end and continue development through volunteer management and community enthusiasm. For whatever reason though, it is no longer being developed. In 2014-15, I was at university when the course first appeared in the app’s Incubator. How does a course graduate from beta? Ī course typically graduates from beta when the Duolingo team and the incubator contributors believe a course is stable and receives less than 3 reports per 100 users.As I state in the biography on my Twitter and Instagram profiles, I really want to see Duolingo add a Catalan for English speakers course. How long courses stay in beta will vary, but the average duration is 7 or 8 months. How long does a course stay in beta (Phase 2)? Anyone can sign up to take a beta (Phase 2) course on the website. It means that it's a relatively new course and there might be some errors, so it's going through a "beta" or testing phase before it's "officially" released. What is the minimum number of contributors required? ĭuolingo will always require 2 qualified moderators per course. They are also receiving thousands of applications for Incubator contributors and those take some time to go through. Why haven't I heard back on my application yet? ĭuolingo is rolling out new Incubator courses slowly at first, so it may take some time before they are ready to incubate the course you applied for. Much of an original course's content will also be used to create its "reverse course", so by contributing to one course direction you will also be contributing to the opposite direction as well. The Duolingo staff will review applications for both directions when assembling a team for either direction. No, you only need to apply for one of the directions. Do I need to apply separately for each direction? I want to help create courses in both directions between two languages. ![]() If the language you want to teach to or from is not listed in the drop-down menus, select "Enter Other" and type it in. If you're fluent in both languages, you can apply to help create a Duolingo course on the incubator website. The list of languages along with the "Enter Other" option. The choice of languages being added to the incubator depends on a lot of factors including Duolingo's internal knowledge of them. ![]() The Duolingo language Incubator is where bilingual volunteers from around the world connect to build new language courses for Duolingo.
