Voice Messaging (anytime day or night)
Voice mail is helpful because it’s an easy way to contact teachers and students even if they are unable to be reached when you call them the first time. These messages are automatically saved and can be listened to at later times if you are busy at the time a call is made to you. You can listen to messages more than once. You can forward these messages on to other places or devices.

Below are some other sites that can help in making audio recordings.
Canvas also has a tool that can be used to make video recordings and audio recordings. This is helpful because after making a recording you can save and hand in your work practically straight away. It's good because you don't have to find a website to make a recording on then saving it or formatting it so its playable later on. CANVAS makes it easy for you.
Audacity
Audacity is a useful to help make recordings for assignments or personal use. In the above picture i am making the first recording telling a story for one of my lessons.
Just press the record button to begin the recording. Audacity allows you to add different effects to your recording like you see in this drop down menu above.

This picture is me making a second audio recording but this time I am humming a tune that will overlay the first recording. This makes your voice recording sound more appealing and interesting. When you play back the recording it will now have both audio recordings playing at the same time so you hear the overlap.
This drop down menu also gives you options on the audio recording and if you'd like it to loop. skip start, record etc.
