Some courses require students to record themselves correctly pronouncing terminology. Instructors often give different methods the student can use to record and submit their word lists. If your instructor has stated that you can use your phone to record your audio, here are a couple of methods for doing so.

9. Choose a folder to save your file in, if you would like, or just click "Add". 
10. Now that you've created the recording, you need to submit it to the assignments area for grading by the instructor.
