I missed class last week but Dr. Schmidt recorded class on an iPod for me. Yay! It was really cool to be able to listen to what you all did in class. I think the recording started a little late and maybe ended early? There was only an hour and a half on the iPod. Anyway, I'm glad I got to hear about the expectations about the TPACK lesson plan since we hadn't heard much about it yet. I can hopefully use a lesson I've already created to integrate technology into. Unfortunately, I did not have the capability to post the podcast onto our class wiki from my home computer. I had to rush the iPod back to the CTLT anyway so it wouldn't be late.
We are actually going to mess with podcasting next week in another class, so this was interesting for me to take part in a quasi-podcast. I also had an assignment where I had to find a podcast for use in the classroom, and there are so many great resources out there. I found one that is an interview with Sandra Cisneros from npr.org. Very interesting and I think would be motivating for students to hear straight from the author about why she wrote her book. I will be acccessing more podcasts in the future because they are so cool! Students would have a blast creating them as well. When I get a chance, I'm going to post a few podcast resources on our wiki.

Great! I did start it a little late - announcements, but you are OK. It probably wasn't the most interesting because students spent a lot of time just looking around the IPTV site. That is why it seems short! Let's start a podcasting resource category on our wiki!
ReplyDeleteI just figured out what podcasting was a few months ago. I'd heard the term before but never really figured out what it actually was until a friend of mine regularly downloaded music podcasts. I think they're really interesting and I was surprised when I looked online at how many different kinds of podcasts there are. I really like the idea of using podcasts in a classroom setting, especially since so many students are already using Ipod technology and are familiar with podcasts.
