Window to Enhanced Podcasting

On June 13th, I presented "Window to Enhanced Podcasting" as part of the Illinois Computing Educators Summer Workshop program. It was quite a challenge to build enhanced podcasts in 3 hours using PC computers and Windows compatible software. We used Audacity, Movie Maker, PowerPoint, Creative Commons approved images and music, and Jodix iPod converter. Each participant had an opportunity to record to an iPod, view educational podcasts on the Web, experiment with a variety of software applications, and gain a better understanding of the use of podcast technology to enhance teaching and learning.

The Jordan School District TeacherTube video, PAY ATTENTION is a testament to the enriching capability that podcating, vodcasting and handheld technology has to offer.
