Complete the assignment on a piece of paper and write down any questions you might have. ◦ Bring your answers to lab so that you can get extra credit for your work!

Transcription Module You will be given several short phrases and sentences to transcribe. ◦ Feel free to play the sound files as many times as you want, and fine tune your transcription accordingly. Your goal for this module is an accurate transcription. This assignment will be in connected speech. ◦ The speech will be faster and less clear than what you are used to hearing in class. ◦ This will be good practice for transcribing your speaker!
