Digital Audio Recordings

I created a digital audio recording using the sound recorder on my laptop to test the microphone - you can listen through this link to my wiki (go to the bottom on the page). I downloaded Audacity, but didn’t use it as I wasn’t planning to edit the audio file at this time.  The editing of audio files could be limited by planning a script for the audio prior to the commencement of the recording.

Audio recordings would be a great way to enhance the learning experience by involving all the auditory senses as well as any visual stimulation.  Multimedia has been shown to engage the whole brain, as evidenced through Gardiner’s theory on Multiple Intelligences as covered in week 1’s Learning Theories.

Recording audio is a simple process so children in their early years would be able to handle the process.
