microphone for the iPod. Once you have one for your
language lab, you'll start using it for student interviews
and other projects. A couple of teachers here at Lab have
begun using it to record portions of their classes to help
them develop better curriculum (or to better articulate the
curriculum that's in place). Import into iTunes (on either
platform) and use with a variety of software, including
iMovie and GarageBand on the Mac.
A hint: if you want really good voice quality, record in
a closet.
It's a nice product at a decent price (~$50)
