We have a teacher in our county who would like to create audio files of her spelling word lists for her students. I let her know about Spelling City, but she would really like to do a project where her GATE Students record the spelling lists, and then link them to her website so that her students can use the audio files to study for the test.
One site I found that seems to have simple audio recording capabilities is http://www.aviary.com/. This teacher is not extremely comfortable with technology, and it also needs to be something that is easy enough for her 4th grade GATE students to help with. Does anyone know of any other web based audio capture sites?
She is also interested in possibly doing video for another project, so I was wondering if anyone knows of any web based video capturing websites that would allow her to make small movies with her web cam to upload to her site.
Thanks! Kristen

Hi Kristen, I don't know if you are using PC or Mac. On a PC, there is a simple little recording app called Sound Recorder. It does a decent job of voice recording.
I find it under All Programs, Accessories, Entertainment. I would bet there is a Mac equivalent.

Have you considered installing Audacity instead? It is an open source, free, very easy to use software. You will need to also install the LAME encoder which is also a free, open source plug in which allows you to very easily export the files as MP3.
Our third graders find Audacity very easy to use.
