Podcasting...

I have been listening to podcasts for a few years now.  It started listening to baseball recaps, then moved onto reviews of bodybuilding shows to golf podcasts...I now have produced my own podcast.  It was a simple, but time consuming project to put this together but well worth the time and effort. 

The project began in the classroom with a simple poll asking students about technology and their use and ideas of technology. I would have liked to conduct the poll online, but do to the volume of classes and students I have, it was not feasible.  At any rate, the poll went smooth and I was provided with some excellent information to use.  I then interviewed four students, two young men and two young ladies.  The answers they provided were pretty much parallel with the poll results. 

Now came the tricky part of this particular podcast....editing the interviews into a three-five minute single, piece of information.  This actually took a few hours and some ground work to produce and make it run relatively smooth!

All in all, this was a fun project and somewhat of an eye opener!
