Final Blog Post and Podcast

I chose to use the program audacity for this recording.  I used audacity to record my podcast and to add to my voice recording some music in the background.  I really enjoyed this software and it was rather simple to download and start using. 

The biggest obstacle that I encountered with this program was that I downloaded the most recent version of this program and the tutorials were actually an earlier version.  I was able to figure out all of the settings with just a little clicking/searching, so luckily this was not a big obstacle.  The reading and tutorials took longer than the recording.  I enjoyed the ability to edit this as well.  I really had no idea how many times I take a breath and how loudly I do it.  Very interesting to me.    I also do not really like the sound of my own voice, learned that as well.  I sound very silly. 

I do think that I will use this software in the future especially if I am to teach online courses which is the future of nursing education.    So i would love to know if there is software like this to edit videos?????  Wow, the things that I could do with my homevideos....  Sounds like fun.

Overall, I learned a lot in this course.  I know have some basics to build on and I am thankful that I took on this challenge.  Thanks for all that I have been taught!!
