Audio Files in the Classroom


The use of audio files in the classroom at first seemed a little questionable, especially if the teacher is still in the room. Why use them if you can just talk to the students like you normally would. The article Listen Up!: Using Audio Files in the Curriculum gives at least three unique ways to use audio files in your class. The one that peeked my interest was to use the audio files to greet your students as they come into the classroom. They discussed how you could have a still picture and use the audio to make it seem real for your students. You could use this when teaching a lesson about someone in history and have the students give the person a voice using a script or something.
