Zoo Project Notes and Questions

Make sure that you have read the Zoo Research document on the S drive. You are to use the Zoo Project Script document to create your script for the project. Make sure you have created a folder on your P drive in the Projects folder. Name the folder: Smith Zoo Project (replace Smith with your last name).

ALL work for the zoo project MUST be saved to this folder. Complete ALL research before making your script. Create your script in Audacity after you have completed the Zoo Project Script document.

Remember: you must create 1 audio file per slide in Audacity
After recording an audio file in Audacity, click on File, click on Export as WAV, save in your Zoo Project Folder. Give the audio file a meaningful name such as: Slide1, Slide 2, etc.

To add the audio file to the slide, you will click on insert, then on sound file, then point to the recorded audio file in your Zoo Project folder. A small picture of a speaker will appear on the slide.

Make sure that you are documenting the sources of all your graphic files. Give credit where credit is due.

Remember:
All slide should have the same look, layout, font, etc.
If you use a background for a picture, make sure you read the text through the picture.
DO NOT put long paragraphs of information on your slides. Slides should contain 4 to 5 bulleted items that are prompts.


SAVE OFTEN.

Audacity is free and your can download it and use it at home. Your research and script can be completed at home if necessary.
