  1. What is eLearning?Learning that is conducted via electronic media, which is facilitated by the use of digital tools.… or much simpler put…Using technology to deliver learning.This PPT can be found on Slidesharehttp://www.slideshare.net/wilmuedtech
  2. Today’s trends demonstrate text and texting have overtaken personal voice in communicating with one another.Gartner, the technology research company, predicts that by 2013 online video will be commonplace.http://www.lindsayabbottvoiceover.com/2011/02/audio-and-the-e-learning-industry/ Even though the trends show the high use of text, students today will learn more quickly if you envelope all their senses; The generation that grew up with television will want that same experience in learning.Instructors have to consider the different learning styles of students and use different forms of media to meet their needs. Audio is important in the classroom, either using audio as a teacher or having your students utilize audio themselves.Engage your students by replacing dry text reading with interesting audio. Become an edu-tainer by using voice in your online course. Using voice will engage students and increase learning.
  3. How do we communicate in a course?All those wayslisted can be done in an online course. And all can be enhanced with audio.
  4. The 1st part of the audio chain is the sound card. The next time you purchase a computer, put money in an upgraded sound card, since the sound card does most of the “behind the scenes work.” You need a good microphone, its probably the 2nd most important part of the audio chain. you don't have to spend a lot of money on a microphone for voice to computer recording. But look at consumer ratings and reviews to help you decide. Microphone Connector to Computer– either USB or the 3.5mm mini plug.One microphone connector is the TRS connector, also known as the jack, in 1/4" (6.35 mm), 3.5 mm, and 2.5 mm sizes, and in both mono and stereo configurations. TRS stands for “Tip ring sleeve” Headphone cables consist of three separate wires. One carries the signal for the left headphone driver, the second has the signal for the right headphone driver, and the third wire is the grounded wire.The microphone with the USB connection is nowadays most common and easily plug and playable.Read more: How to Make a Headphone Cable | eHow.comhttp://www.ehow.com/how_7670935_make-headphone-cable.html#ixzz1cNXqkd8ZNot all microphone plugs that appear to be stereo are actually stereo. Many mono computer microphones use 3-conductor TRS 3.5 mm plugs in order to carry other signals, such as bias power for an electric element, to or from the microphone.Length of cord – if you are wearing the headset or lapel mic, make sure it is at least 6 feet long to get around the desk.Troubleshooting the microphone – probably the biggest problem you’ll face is making sure the microphone you’re using is selected as the input device on your computer and in the recording software you are using.Plugging the microphone in the correct port.
