| Take some time to listen to some podcasts. If you have iTunes installed it's a great place to start. Go to the iTunes Store then click on podcast on the menu on the left. Find something that interests you. It doesn't neet to be about education or this course. Find a podcast that you can relate to, download it and have a listen! Do some learning on your own and see if you can produce your very own podcast. It's not hard, basically talking into a microphone, your thoughts, your ideas. If you are using a Mac I recommend GarageBand (Comes free on your mac) if you are on a PC I recommend using Audacity. You can do a search on youtube.com to find videos that will walk you through both programs. Or search google for text based tutorials. When you have completed your podcast you will have to find a podcasting service to upload them too. www.gcast.com and podomatic.com are two that people have used before. This week I'm giving you very little guidance on purpose. I want you to go out there and learn how to learn. Can you search and find the information you need? Can you learn a new program? Where are you going to look for help? Creating a podcast is a three step process: 1. Record the audio file (you choose! Can be you interviewing someone, or you just talking about something random, or about this class. You could record a lesson you do at school or record students talking). 2. Upload the audio file (must be in mp3 or acc format) to the web using some sort of podcast or file hosting service. 3. Link the audio file to your blog turning an audio file into a podcasat (It only becomes a podcast when you share it with the world!). Please note that the due date for this is the end of the course....for some this might be a HUGE learning curve. Take your time, learn something new, and do it right. :) Good Luck here are some good podcasts to get you started. If you use iTunes you can search for more on your own. http://www.sospodcast.org http://www.thethinkingstick.com/ondeck http://davidwarlick.com/connectlearning/ http://academicaesthetic.com/ http://edtechtalk.com/ (A collection of great educational podcasts) http://www.speedofcreativity.org/ | ||
