Additional Equipment
Audio Commenting
To use the audio-commenting feature available for composition and collaboration assignments, instructors must have a built-in microphone, a stand-alone microphone, or a microphone that is part of a headset. Headset or built-in microphones are recommended for Mac users. Also, Mac users who have external microphones should have amplifiers for proper recording.
Both students and instructors must have functioning speaker systems, which are not muted, to play back audio comments. Adobe Flash Player version 9.0.60 or higher is required for proper recording and play-back functionality.
