Manage Your Digital Self -Voicemail

Google Voice

• Use a Google Voice number with your students and you won't have to worry about students having your real phone number. They can call and text you during the times you want to permit that, and when you don't, you have all the calls go straight to voicemail where you can read or listen to them later.
• Google keeps a record of every call and text conversation you have with your students, and you can even record calls that you feel need to be recorded.

Visual Voicemail works with existing phone number

• Completely visual - see who called, from where, and even their picture (when before all you had was their number!)
• Use your smart phone or your computer - or you can still dial in like before (if you feel the need!)
• Save time - Point, click and play or delete.
