13. RECORD AUDIO FROM A
CELLPHONE
• Free with a google account.
• Create a unique phone number through google that students can
call.
• Calls
are stored in an email-like inbox that can then be
downloaded as an mp3 file, or embedded.
• mp3 file of the voice message can be edited or combined with
other voice messages to create a larger audio file by using an
audio editor such as Garageband or Audacity.

14. THERE'S MORE!
• Email anyone:
• simply enter email address rather than a phone number.
