1) Internet Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) Requirements
Headset, including microphone. We will be using VoIP, so you will need a microphone in order to speak. Here are some things to look for in a headset:
- USB (no computer sound card required) or analog (if you have a good computer sound card)
- Noise-canceling microphone (unidirectional is ideal)
- Comfort
- Long cord (at least 6 feet so you have room to move around)
- You should be able to purchase a suitable microphone inexpensively either online or through any store that sells electronic equipment.
2) See if Virtual Classroom can run on your computer.
