Helpful Hints for Recording Assignments in Audacity*
- If you don't like the sound quality, adjust your microphone level
- Make sure that you title your files correctly using your lastname and the assignment code. This makes it much easier to grade assignments.
- Always save your files to the same location. Create a folder somewhere that you have easy access to so you know where to browse. Don't save all your files to your desktop.
- DON'T DELETE YOUR FILES! If there is ever a question about an assignment, you have the original recording!
