In relation to this, could you please tell me what you are purchasing (in the
elementary sector) to
replace devices for RECORDING? We used to use a cassette recorder + microphone
(hand-held or
built-in) but I am struggling to find a common, portable, sturdy and affordable
device to suggest.
(We still have the recorders but can't get the cassettes and can't convert the
recordings to mp3
files) Its primary use will be to record short interviews which would then be
uploaded to a
computer as an mp3 file to accompany a digital presentation. It is not always
possible or practical
to record directly to the computer, as in the case of doing oral histories with
older folk in their
homes.
It has been suggested that students use their mobile phones, but apart from the
fact that not all
elementary students have phones, I believe that the school should provide the
device under access
and equity issues.
I have asked this question of many but have yet to get a satisfactory solution.
