Abstract: Language extinction threatens over 1,500 languages by the end of this century. Melodic Transcription in Language Documentation and Analysis (MeTILDA) is a web-based toolset designed to document and educate endangered pitch-accent languages, where pitch variations alter word meaning. While MeTILDA effectively visualizes pitch movements using a novel perceptual scale, its educational features are limited. This paper presents an extension of MeTILDA with a Content Management System (CMS) that enhances language learning through course management, lessons, discussions, assignments, quizzes, and grading. Supporting listening, speaking, reading, and writing, the system integrates MeTILDA's pitch visualization tool to reinforce auditory perception. Built on MeTILDA's cloud-based architecture, this extension transforms it from a documentation tool into a comprehensive educational platform, aiding in the preservation of endangered languages.
