Wimba Voice Overview
Wimba Voice is a web-based voice solution that facilitates and promotes vocal instruction, collaboration, coaching, and assessment.

Wimba Voice incorporates the use of threaded voice boards, voice-enabled email, embedded voice within course pages as well as live group discussions and debates which increase the interaction and student engagement level of any course.

There are five Wimba Voice tools: Voice Authoring, Voice Email, Voice Board, Voice Presentation, and Wimba Podcaster. Instructors can use these tools to help facilitate and promote language learning, vocal instruction, collaboration, coaching, and assessment. Using Wimba Voice can increase students' engagement level and sense of interaction with the course material.

All users should run the Setup Wizard before using Wimba Voice for the first time. This will ensure that you have a successful Wimba experience.
