When setting up your Assignment in Moodle, you can choose to have students submit their responses as an audio response right in Moodle, as well as choose to provide audio feedback to your students. Note that a mic (for audio) is required for these features.

In your course in Moodle, turn on Edit mode. While creating a new assignment or editing an already existing one, under Submission types, choose Online Poodll.

For Poodll Rec. Type select Audio Recorder. Fill in the Poodll Rec. Time Limit in the text box provided. Use the drop down menu to select minutes, hours, days, etc.

For Feedback types, check Cloud Poodll Feedback. Choose Audio Feedback from the Poodll Recorder Type drop down menu. It’s also a good idea to Enable Transcription, from the drop down menu just select Normal transcription.

 

When finished making your selections, click the Save and return to course button at the bottom of the page.
