Podcasting! You've heard of it, seen your students carrying iPods, and you want to know more about what it is. In this introductory workshop, you will learn about educational podcasting and how it is currently being used in classrooms around the nation. This hands-on workshop will show you how easy it is to create your own audio broadcast- with free and low cost Windows based content media tools. You’ll learn how to record and edit your audio narration, how to add music and digital photos, and when you’re done, how to send and publish your podcast. Many examples of educational-related Podcasts will be presented and participants will learn how to 'subscribe' and listen to Podcasts through free software. You will also gain a general understanding of the instructional technology involved, in which to create a content based podcast for your classroom. So, get ready to engage in the culture of your Digital Native students and, perhaps, find a new avenue for connecting with them . . . in more ways than one.
