podcast

I can't tell you how easy using Imovie is to create a podcast. I will be using this in my classroom for 2 of my classes adding the rest by next year. The ease of creating this project surprised me. I went to picknik and modified all the pics in the podcast. Students enjoy the alterations done like colorization or sharpness. I also used imovie to add music and voice over to my podcast. This personalized the project a little more. My students are all so tech friendly, I know I can set up the original blogger and let them take over the rest. I also enjoy that this project is very green! Not always using paper and pen helps students to prepare for the next step in life where technology is used every day.

Really love the delicious idea. Having a way to bookmark and share with others the sites i have found is great. I have a friend on delicious with tons of sites i can reference. I will be taking more time to create different tags for my students to use when researching for their projects. my account is http://delicious.com/carmenstaudt
