Podcast Thursday

Another day of firsts! I loved seeing how easy it was to use a microphone. In no time, I was working away at creating our advocacy podcast...I was even cutting out long pauses and adding sound. Audacity was easy to pick-up, which means my students will have no trouble with using it (after a little tutorial). This will definitely be a wonderful tool to use with my third graders. I can see them creating their own podcasts, narrating their own stories, and even creating books on tapes for younger students. The possibilities are exciting! I also enjoyed reading about podcasting in Will Richardson's book. It really opened my eyes to how podcasts can be used and what learning outcomes I can expect to see.
