Evoca for Educators™ provides educators and students with an easy, affordable method to record language learning exercises and other subjects that benefit from audio recording and teacher feedback.  Now a teacher or professor can register their students’ phone numbers and/or Skype accounts to make it easy to record audio assignments straight from their phones or computers.  It’s a web service so no downloads are required.  Read on.

How Evoca for Educators™ was launched is described by Murem Sharpe, Evoca CEO: “High school and middle school teachers asked the Evoca team for a way that students could use their phones to record practice assignments because many students and families could not afford a computer at home. They needed an accessible, affordable solution to offer to their Advanced Placement (AP) language students preparing for the College Board tests in Spanish, French, German,  and Japanese, and while learning other foreign languages during their cultural and religious instruction.  English as a Second Language (ESL) teachers also wanted their students to practice outside of class.”

The story is somewhat different, but equally compelling for higher education. Sharpe continues, “University and e-learning professors needed a way for their active students to use their mobile phones to record audio assignments. Students are often on the move between classes, work, and home. Evoca is meeting these important logistical challenges and delivering tangible learning opportunities with its Evoca for Educators program.”  As adults, university students often get their own Evoca accounts and email the recordings to their professors to get feedback.

Evoca turns any phone into a digital microphone. The phone is connected to the Internet without the user having to download any software or worry about updates. Students simply dial any of Evoca’s publicly available numbers. Evoca’s technology instantly recognizes the students’ registered phone numbers and saves the recordings to the educator’s Evoca account as digital (MP3) recordings, auto-tagged with the students’ names and course numbers. The recordings are always available online for the educator to listen and email the recording to the student with valuable feedback. Educators also can register their U.S. and international students’ Skype accounts, enabling them to record from anywhere in the world, just like having a global toll-free phone number.

Educators with a blog or website can also invite their students to record online using the embeddable Evoca Browser Mic, an in-browser Flash recorder. After recording, the student can add her/his email address, comments, or other identification in data fields associates with their recordings. Recorder “plugins” are available for popular web programs such as WordPress TypePad, Blogger, and Drupal, as well as a generic plugin for any website, blog, or social media profile.

In addition to foreign language and ESL (English as a Second Language) training, educators in “seated” public and private schools and universities, as well as e-learning organizations around the world are benefitting from Evoca’s Voice-to-Web services for a wide range of audio assignments. Any educator can use the convenient online sign up for an Evoca Express Pro subscription and have their students recording the same day. The program’s applications include:
