This is an assignment for my TEC969 course with Fresno Pacific University, in which I was asked to upload a presentation on online evaluation. I'm trying to figure out how to record and sync an MP3 file.

3. A Necessary Step Online course evaluation is a necessary step toward insuring that our students receive the same high quality courses online as they would in the face-to-face classroom.
4. Why Evaluate? To maintain standards-based integrity To verify rigor To be sure content is accessible through a variety of learning styles To witness student-student and student-teacher interaction
