I choose to use the chrome app Vocaroo. This tool is something I look forward to using in my classroom. I choose to record myself reading a story, and then the students can follow along. If a student is visually impaired this can help them as they can replay the teacher's voice This app can be used for a variety of reasons though. Students can create their own stories, and not be afraid as it is just their voice. My favorite part, you can download it as a QR code and have your students scan it on their own device.
It is extremely user friendly:
Step one: Type Vocaroo into the web browser ( Make sure microphone is enabled on your computer)
Step two: Click begin recording and record then click stop recording
Step three: Listen to your recording
Step four: Save recording and then email or embed the link or
THAT IS IT!
Hi Jacquie, Thank you for sharing your experience with using Vocaroo. It is great that you found the tool user-friendly.
ReplyDeleteHi Jacquie, thanks for your review on the online tool/ website. It is a very easy to use tool and can be used in several applications. I like that the tool doesn't require a username or password to use it.
ReplyDeleteHi Jacquie! I love the idea of this tool. I have subbed in a classroom with a blind student. I wonder if his aid would like to know about this tool!
ReplyDeleteHi Jacquie, Vocaroo seems so easy! I panic a little when I see QR codes though (I know, I know, they are like the easiest thing ever, but I can never get them to work). Great review!
