Audacity

In Intro to Computers in Education I had to download a free software called Audacity. We used this program to record our voices using a microphone. We used this program to do projects such as, e books, the storytelling, the books we had to read such as Dr. Seuss, and a poem. With the use of the microphone our voices came to life. The program aloud us to crop out any unwanted material. It was very easy to use and a lot of fun to learn.
Through doing these activities I was made aware of this program. I did know there was a way to record the sound of your voice onto your computer. It was challenging to adjust the volume. Many times I had to start over because my voice was either to load or to soft. Sometimes it took me awhile just to record a small section. I overcame these challenges by practicing over and over till I got it right. I learned that if you hold the microphone at the right hight it sounds better. Overall I learned that if you keep trying you will eventually achieve your goal because practice makes perfect. I also learned if I put time and effort into a hard task the result is well worth it.
