Online BigMack Switch
There you go! An online BigMack Switch! So if you don't have a BigMack, your BigMack is broken, you are out of batteries or you just want to play around you can come to this blog entry, record and play back a voice! (You might want to bookmark this entry.)
Make it switch accessible by recording, putting the mouse pointer over "listen" and setting a switch to "mouse click".
Also Vocaroo is a very cool and FREE way to send voice notes via e-mail and post voice recording to the internet. Check it out.
Some of the ways you could use a Vocaroo in the classroom would be to record a note to a parent who does not read well and send it via e-mail, record a student reading or speaking and send to a parent or even yourself for data collection, and allow non-writing students to send voice e-mails to each other. Can you think of any other ideas?

Audio and Video E-mails
After receiving an empty e-mail today from a former student who composes her e-mails using Discover and Morse Code and then, coincidentally, landing on the YackPack website, I started giving some serious thought to the uses of audio and video e-mail for our students.
There appear to be two major free audio e-mail websites, YackPack and SpringDoo. Both allow you to send audio messages to an individual or a group. The website sends an e-mail to the person (or people) and invites them to the site to listen to the message. They can then reply in audio or the regular way. SpringDoo also has the option of video. Both allow you to "click, record, send" and both allow you to send messages to people who are not members. The support sections of each seem to be similar. I have e-mailed each asking about alternate access and will let you know about any responses.
I think that the concept of allowing our students to audio or video e-mail is amazing. Like any other technology it is limited only by our imaginations.
