Online recording

April 15, 2012 4:44 AM

I'm looking for a solution for students to record themselves online and have the resulting file sent to an email address.

It's for an online English evaluation -- the students record their description of a picture on the site. Previously I was using Evoca, but it seems to have stopped working (it was a flash-based recorder), and since I built this a few years ago, I thought there may be something new out there. Thanks.

Have tried this but maybe?

I used Soundcloud in the past when I had students upload podcasts they created, but it appears as if they will let you record directly onto their site, too. Don't know about the email functionality, but it's worth checking out.

In my college Spanish language class last year the teacher had us use Voki to do this. We all had microphones to record directly into the computer, but I believe you can also use your phone to call in a message.

If Myna isn't overkill, it's awesome!
