KidCast: Epsode 29 - New School Year Resolutions | Creating a Podcasting Grant Project




KidCast: Learning and Teaching with Podcasting show

Summary: KidCast for August 23, 2006 The kids are coming! Are you ready for the new school year? Why not start the year off with some new school year resolutions? Find a new podcast for yourself from the 60,000 available online! Explore a "quickcast" to share with your students each day. Have you polled your students to see how many of them know about podcasting? What do they know about it? How do they perceive themselves? Consumers or producers or both? My TEAM in Training marathon preparation is still going strong. Thanks to everyone who has donated to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. If you would like to make a donation, or to catch up on my progress, visit: http://www.active.com/donate/tntne/tntneDSchmit On the show I will discuss odeo.com as a one stop solution for podcasting that removes many of the technical barriers to getting a podcast online. I love this site and the features keep getting better all the time. Go Evan and crew! I will also explore how to begin designing a podcast project for a grant or initiative within your school. There are lots of important questions to consider, be sure to ground your ideas in solid planning.
