Audacity+Audio-worksheets

In this session we learned the basics of creating an Audio Worksheet in Audacity. Main points to remember: Use the **Edit** menu to select **Preferences** File management: Can be a potential problem. Voicethread is a great interactive way to get students talking... create an share a project (digital story with spoken narration). Other students in the class (or around the world - Global Collaboration...) can leave audio commentary back. Word of caution... you may want to set this up with your own account and you MODERATE COMMENTS (a must) if students are younger, sensitive to potential spam. (this is something they do and will confront however in their online forays so I think it's a good chance to educate them, how to be safe, how to deal with it, etc.)
 * Audio I/O preferences to solve recording/playback issues
 * Tick the Play other tracks while recording a new one box if you want to listen and speak back
 * MUST move the .aup file AND the project folder together.
 * use ﻿﻿ strict naming rules (7a_Jeff_Spanish Verbs 1)
 * can import audio files, edit them like text (cut, copy, paste).
 * can export as .MP3 - good for a "finished product" only one file to manage, move, plays on anything.
