Hi, folks.
My original request: "At the end of January, I'll be teaching an
inservice on podcasting to
some teachers in my district. The first of the sessions will focus on
the "whys," and the second on the "hows." My question to you all is,
what do you use podcasts for? If you
podcast, is it for instruction, Booktalks,Parent communication..."
If you would like to see what I'm sharing at my teacher inservice next
week, here's the link:

Sidebar.
I recently attended a "Podcast Institute" sponsored by Apple, and the
instructor--knowing I'm from a district that uses Windows, rather than
Apple--e-mailed me links to a new, free, web-based app called Mogopop.
The link is: http://www.mogopop.com/ It isn't a perfect answer to the
ease with which enhanced podcasts can be created on the Apple platform,
largely because it requires the download of an alternate media manager.
Mogopop content can't be downloaded straight to iTunes. Not yet,
anyway. But it seems promising, and of course--it's free.
Below are the responses I received from LM_Net. My sincere thanks for
all the LM_Net help I received getting ready for this inservice.
This video podcast, produced by the NUAMPS division at Northwestern
University. It is designed to be a take-along, on a video iPod, as one
takes a a self-guided walking tour of the Prairie Avenue historic
district in Chicago. It included archival photos of each lot along the
street, some depicting homes still standing and others no longer extant.
Other background information tells about the famous residents of this
illustrious street. It does not require a video iPod, and can be played
on any computer that uses the .m4v format. (I play it on my Mac) While
this has been produced by college students, it is a very good example of
what can be done by students with the podcasting software that is easily
available.

Hi! I am intrigued with podcasting, but we haven't had anyone use it in
the classroom setting; as soon as I get settled in, I would like to do
some book talks with video. I would love to know if there is an
effective way to do vodcasting in Windows. I've used Audacity to create
mp3's (at which point does a voice recording become a podcast? Does it
have to be posted on itunes? a website?), but haven't posted any. I'm
trying to convince our school that we need one little Apple because it
is so much easier for podcasts/vodcasts. I would love to know if anyone
else has found anything as user-friendly on Windows.

Good afternoon -
I am slowly introducing podcasting to our district. Thus far, it is
extracurricular, but I hope to have it integrated into curriculum in the
future. This is what I have so far:
1. Middle School News Team - I collect information from teachers on
what is happening in their classrooms (1-2 minutes). I write a script,
recruit students to record, edit, convert, and post the podcast on our
website and have the local radio station play it. We have only done two
so far.
2. High school teaching staff - a teacher records a monthly staff
development tip about 2-3 minutes long. I edit it, add an intro and
trailer, and will post it on our website.
3. Technology tip of the month - we will record, edit, and post this
on our website for students and staff.
