Using Audio in your Classroom

Here is a list of ideas for using audio in the classroom:

Use to give an oral quiz-Students call the number, listen to a greeting, and speak their answers.
Create an announcement in your Moodle Course.
Vocabulary: Learners can speak sentences or paragraphs that demonstrate knowledge of vocabulary words. You could even embed these in a class website, to serve as review/reference materials.
Audio Study Guide: Have students call in the content as a message.
Math Solutions: Allow students to "talk" through the steps of a math problem..
Audio Field Trip Journal: Have kids leave messages throughout the field trip that documents their experiences.
Speech: Learners can record speeches via the phone.
Get in Character: Let the learners have fun by leaving messages in character.
Reflection Tool: After a class discussion or project presentation, have the learners record a reflection via Google Voice.
Embed a call on your blog.
