Users have the option of including audio files, such as .wav files, in the Text Box Editor. This option is available if the Text Box Editor is enabled.
Note: Users who do not have access to the Text Box Editor, or if the Text Box Editor is disabled, may still attach audio files to course Web sites, such as in Content Areas.
The Text Box Editor appears within text boxes in Eduspace. Select the fifth button, Add Audio Content, in the third row of the Action bar.
