Additional Equipment

Headset or built-in microphones are recommended for Mac users. Also, Mac users who have external microphones should have amplifiers for proper recording.
Both students and instructors must have functioning speaker systems, which are not muted, to play back audio comments. Adobe Flash Player version 20 or higher is required for proper recording and play-back functionality.
