How to record an oral assignment

 * Option A**

To record your voice, we recommend the use of **Audacity (Version 1.2)**, which can be downloaded at the following link: @http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/ Once you've installed **Audacity (Version 1.2)**, follow these steps:


 * 1) Make sure you have a working microphone or headset.
 * 2) Open **Audacity**.
 * 3) Click on the red dot to begin the recording.
 * 4) Click on the yellow square to stop the recording.
 * 5) Listen to what you have recorded by clicking on the green arrow.
 * 6) When you're done, go to **File**, **Export As WAV**.
 * 7) A window will pop up, asking you where you wish to save your file. Choose to **save it on your Desktop** and make sure to give your recording a name that is easy to remember but cannot be mistaken for another file. Click on **Save**.
 * 8) Exit Audacity and find your recording (which should now be located on your Desktop in WAV format now), right-click on it and select **Properties**. The Type of File should read **Wave Sound (.wav)** or something similar. If your recording appears to be a .WAV file as indicated above, click on **OK** and proceed to **Step 9.**
