= On-line Voice Recording: = = Computer-based Oral Proficiency Practice and Assessment =

This is my collection of voice-recording tools available on the Internet. (I'll call it "my" collection for now just to mean that I've collected them. I have not contributed in any way to the creation of these tools. And there are surely things out there that I haven't yet seen or tried.) I'm experimenting with ways to use these tools for my students' benefit as they learn Spanish with me.

I was drawn to the idea of voice-recording on the computer for several reasons:


 * I wanted to find or create opportunities for my students to listen to Spanish both in and out of the classroom.
 * I wanted to create opportunities for students to practice speaking Spanish and to be able to listen to their own voices.
 * I wanted to be able to collect samples of students' speech in order to assess their speaking skills.
