Here is what you need to do to do recordings and submit them to your instructor. The easiest method is to do it in Dey 109.
The recording instructions are posted at each work station in Dey 109.

Getting Started

Your teacher has made an assignment for you to complete an oral exercise for your pronunciation. The LRC has all of the equipment – microphones, computers, internet access – for you to complete this assignment.
To complete this assignment

      In Dey 109

• Go to http://www.unc.edu/~your onyen
• If you see your home page or a page that says ‘This page is blank’, then you are ready to complete your recordings in Dey 109.
• If you get a page not found error, you will need to go to “Subscribe to Services” –> “ISIS” –> Accept the terms –> Continue
• This will create your H Drive space and you will be able to save your recordings when you come into Dey 109.
• Follow the recording instructions to begin recording your mp3.

      Outside Dey 109

• You will need to use your own microphone. We suggest you purchase an external microphone for better quality recordings.  Unfortunately, we do not have microphones available for checkout or loan.
• Download Audacity and then follow these instructions for getting a free MP3 encoder. Both of these files are required for you to complete recordings outside of Dey 109. Be read and follow all of the instructions for loading the LAME MP3 encoder prior to making your recordings so that you are able to export and save your recording as a MP3.
• Follow the recording instructions to begin recording your mp3.
