Speaker 1: Hello. In this video, I want to show you a Google Chrome extension that allows you to leave voice feedback to students in the comments. But not only voice feedback, but it actually transcribes those voice notes so that students can choose to read the note or listen to the note and they don't need to do anything extra except install this extension one time. Let me show you how it works. The extension is called Moat. So you can just look this up in the Chrome Web Store or you can just Google Moat and it should come up relatively early in those search results. Maybe type in Moat Google Chrome and it would come right up for you. So you would install that and it will pop up in your Google Chrome extensions menu. Now let me take you to a Google Doc to show you how it works. It works in the comment bar. So when I press the comment bubble, you'll see that I have this little icon right here which is the Moat icon. I can press on it and it starts picking up whatever I'm saying at this point. Let's see how it works. Done. Then it takes a moment and it looks like this at first, but that's not going to be the final version. Go ahead and press the comment bubble and I press record at an odd time so it didn't pick it up exactly right, but I'm gonna show you how I can fix that in a second. So let me play it on it and it starts picking up whatever I'm saying at this point. Let's see how it works. So you can see it automatically picks up the punctuation. I don't need to tell it period or anything like that. I just talk naturally and then that beginning I want to fix that so I press the edit button and then I can fix it up. I click on it, update. It's been very accurate from what I've tested. I think it was just because I was in the middle of the sentence when I started pressing record. Let me show you another time and then I'm going to show you how students receive this feedback. So I'll leave another comment, click on Moat. Yes, I would definitely say this is a very excellent paper. Well done. Again, press comment. It just takes a couple seconds and on this one it didn't pick up the punctuation correctly. I could edit it and fix that but it's super super simple and then when students go in, if a student does not have the Moat extension installed, then they're gonna have to click and they'll be able to see it like this. That's not very friendly so I would definitely suggest if you are going to be using the Moat extension, make sure that students also install Moat. When they get to the screen, if they click on it for the first time, it will actually ask them do you want to add it to Chrome. So I would suggest having all your students add it to Chrome if you want to use this. Again, the reason that I'm so excited about this extension is that not only is it the voice comment but it also transcribes it. And so I've heard from many teachers that what students tend to say that they don't like about the voice comments is that they can't just go through and if they're revising their paper, for example, they can't just see what correction you were giving them while they're making that correction and then resolve that after they finished it. But if I'm using Moat, then you have the best of both worlds. So you can just give an audio note and it automatically transcribes it. If it messes anything up, you can easily edit your voice note. Yes, I would just like that. Update it and it's all good. So that's a quick introduction to Moat. Again, a Google Chrome extension. It's free and it works very well. I hope this helps. Bye.
