Evaluating Communication Tools- Audible



Audible is an Amazon company. The app is basically a library of books, songs, and collections.  Audible is discussed in a variety of educational blogs and podcasts. For the purpose of high school students, I think audible could be a great app for listening to books but there does not seem to be an interactive component of this app at all, besides active listening.
