Foreign Language Oral Assessment

Hi Folks,

I'm working with my Middle School Spanish department to create a system for
recording, evaluating, and archiving oral assessments in digital format.
We've looked at piecing together a system using Audacity on lab PCs, USB
drives and external hard drives, but we'd like to see if anyone is using an
integrated system designed for this purpose. Wimba looks promising but may
be too pricey for us. Some teachers use Moodle and there appears to be an
audio recording plug-in for that, which we have not yet tried. Can you share
any experiences or suggestions?

Thanks,

Mark Whipple
