[Menvi-discuss] Accessible Digital Recorders

[Marda]

 Do you think the iPhone is a better digital recorder than the Olympus? 
Believe it or not I'm one of these people who doesn't yet have an iPhone but 
am amazed at all the things it can do and want to get one when I can afford 
it.

So, essentially, I use my Olympus DS50, my iPod Touch 5th Gen and my
iPhone 5S smiles...it all depends on what I need them for and how long
it, the recording will be and what type of recording it is...it is
generally a preference thing, to each their own preference, we just
throwin' it all out there for you to make a choice what may work for me
may not work for you sort of advice I'd give.

Teachers have a sacred task:
It is to give children the skills to understand the world and an expectation 
that the world is a trustworthy place; that it is full of light, and love, 
and music and that each student deserves--and will have--their own place in 
it and the chance to play their own song.
And, as much of these expectations are transmitted non-verbally—and in Chela’s 
case--out of sight…it is the voice and touch of a Teacher that sheds light 
on what the world can be.
Academics—and no one will ever change my mind on this—take a distant second 
place. —Dr. Bil Hawkins
