Podcasts

Podcasts will be used often in this class.  I use podcasts to impart knowledge to you and you will use podcasts to demonstrate your knowledge to me.  Here is a tutorial from Willowdale Elementary School in Omaha, Nebraska.  They do an EXCELLENT job of podcasting.  Some of their podcasts can be found here  http://www.mpsomaha.org/willow/radio/listen.html

 

Here is a tutorial that will help you create podcasts: Radio Willow Web podcast User guide.pdf
