5:01 minutes (2.3 MB)Susan and I won't be able to join you on Sunday, October 28.  Here is our Skype call recording.  We talked about our experience using Audacity, Audio Repeater, and Skype.  Today was a good day!

It works!

Thanks to Jose's video I was able to record a sample conversation with the Skype lady.  I'm going to document everything here for future reference:

Properties for playback and recording were both set to C-media wave device.

Audio repeater settings: in- headset mic   out- C-media wave device

Audacity preferences were both C-media

Skype options were both C-media

 


It's not working!

So, I've downloaded VAC and I've watched the screencast on how to set everything up AND IT'S NOT WORKING!  There are too many places to set audio preferences (Skype, Audacity, Windows, Audio Repeater) and I think this is why I can't get both me and the Skype lady to record in Audacity.

I'm in the process of downloading Jing so I can demonstrate all of my settings but, unfortunately, I'm going to run out of time today to do this.  Better luck Saturday.

I consider myself pretty tech savvy and I have to admit I'm really frustrated right now.


Week ending October 20, 2007

What's that old saying? "Life is what happens while your busy making plans" or something like that.  That was pretty much my week.  I really did have good intentions about spending more time on the Webcast Academy website.  But then life got in the way.  Hopefully next week will be more settled around the Dornberg household.

Introduction

My goal is to get teachers to collaborate more in hopes that some time in the future their students will be able to collaborate with other classrooms around the world.  I was a band director for 20 years before moving into my current occupation as an instructional technology specialist for our intermediate school district (a service agency).  I'm of the opinion that until teachers participate in all of the Web 2.0 "stuff" for themselves, they won't understand the possibilities for their students.
