We are creating a lesson explaining how podcasting can be used for educators and students. During the lesson, students will be able to discover how podcasting can be beneficial to educators and students, and how to create a podcast for educational purposes. Students in this course will read “History to Go: Why I teach with IPODS”, “Build a Podcast”, and “Podcasting: When, Why, and Where”, in an effort to gain a better understanding of the many uses of educational podcasting. The strategies addressed during the lesson will focus on………….

The first part of the week from Tuesday-Friday students will log on to the ELC to answer the following questions on podcasting: detail your experience with creating a podcast what did you find most interesting about podcasting, how do you see yourself using podcasts in your classes.

The second part of the week from Friday-Monday students will create a podcast by using the TeamBemore login in code & password on the [|www.podbean.com] **Username: teambemore ** **Password: 495c5b9 ** **Service Plan: Podbean basic - FreeClick following link to login ** **https://www.podbean.com/login **

Students will need to be sure to accept the podbean invitation that TeamBeMore will send out to all of the students on Thursday of the week of the presentation. (For the email invitations, the team will need an email address for all of the students in the course).

Again, I think that we need to consider people's access to microphones. It seems like not everyone has one, and I don't think that we can expect everyone to purchase one for our activity. I think that we should have teams create a podcast, collaborating first on the content of that podcast. They can then post these podcasts by Monday night. (Tom)

Tom, I like your idea. Students can post their initial responses to the ELC for the first part of week from Tuesday-Friday. For the second half of the week Friday-Monday, the students can work in teams to create a podcast summary response of the many uses of podcasting. (Matthew) <span style="font: 17px/31px 'Lucida Grande'; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">If we ask the teams to create a podcast, it will be a bit like a class collaboration project. Members can decide on the topic, who will write the script, read the script, perhaps edit and add music, etc. Only one person needs a mic and if they have a newer version ipod, there is a built in mic on the head phones.
