Open your Microsoft Word program and type the sentences while you are listening to the dictation.
Be sure to save your file to your thumb drive. Save your file as
dictation_1_spring2007_yourfirstname
For dictation 2, save your file name as
dictation_2_spring2007_yourfirstname
Go to Angel: Class/Week 1 (For dictation 2 go to Class/Week 2)
Click on the icon for Dictation 1 or Dictation 2
Copy the sentences from Word and paste the sentences into the Angel exercise.
Do not copy the numbers at the beginning of the sentences and remember to put a period at the end of your sentences.
When you are finished copying and pasting all the sentences in Angel, check your work and then submit the exercise. The computer will give you a score.

Important Note: When the podcast opens, you will start to hear the exercise. Notice that there is a progress bar and there are control buttons so that you can stop or pause the podcast. You can click the pause button to listen to a part that you want to hear again or to give you time to type your answers. You will need to go to the task bar at the bottom of your screen to change between your word document and the document with the podcast controls. In the beginning, this will take practice to get used to, but you can do it! Remember to keep saving your word document file and Happy listening!
