Audio Blog

I though that using audacity was pretty simple.  The biggest issue I had was that there were times that my internal mic wouldn't pick up voices.  I spoke with another teacher who uses it and she said that it sometimes happens.  Once I got that out of the way, it was not difficult at all.  I also thought that my students did a very good job recording their voices and completing the assignment has it was intended.  I had asked the students to create a 30 second-1 minute radio ad for Andrew Jackson's presidency, much like you would hear on the radio today.  They were asked to state what they planned on doing for the country and what characteristics made them a good candidate.  Overall, I thought it was a success.
