3rd emerging technology



As my 3rd emerging technology I did a podcast using audacity. It was really easy, but my boyfriend did help me a little. Audacity is a program that allows you to record your voice or any other sounds. It can be used to edit sounds or music, mix tracks, noise removal, etc. This program can be used in teaching easily or for anyone. If a student is sick, a teacher could use this program to record a lesson. It can be used for musicians as well. The program is very useful. Simply hitting record and talking does a world of wonders. Yet, adding music changes a recording into something new. I enjoyed the program, plus I love to sing. I could see how fun this could be recording my friend and I who sing constantly!  Although the program was great posting it on here was a nightmare! It took me and my boyfriend hours. I do not know if we did something wrong but if there is any other way to do it, I do not recommend using a server. It was really hard. If I had to go through that again just to post it, I would not do it. It was not worth the trouble. My tips would be to explore the program. I am not very good with this part of technology so I did the basics. My other tip is not to use the server as previously said because that was terrible. I thought Audacity was user friendly but posting it was not. Overall, I liked Audacity. My podcast is a recipe, hope you enjoy it!
