CI TO AVOID THIS
Google Voice gives you one phone number that is tied to
you. You can choose to have that phone number ring any
phone you’d like. Students will hear your voice when they
call an assigned number.
When it comes to students who are shy or very nervous
about talking in front of the whole class, it helps them
develop appropriate oral communicative skills. Most
students have an easier time recording a quick message
than trying to produce language in the classroom setting. All
students (at least in the US) have access to phones.

Language students can practice their computer skills and their language skills to talk about everyday activities.
Students can practice speaking as many times as they like before sharing with teachers and classmates. For my students, the ability to do something over and over again and the ability to listen as many times as one wishes is priceless.
