PodOmatic

Hi all,

I have just created a Podcast, on the uses of Blogger for both students and parents. At first i thought to create a Webcam clip with audio and upload the media from my laptop. Instead though, i remember my trusty iPhone has "Voice Memo's" and was able to dictate to my phone, email the file to myself, before uploading it to PodOmatic that way.

Overall the process was very simple and user friendly. I am actually just nervous to hear what my voice sounds like, because i have heard it on tape once before and it was sooo embarrassing!!!

I could search for Podcasts relevant to my students' study unit and either play it in the classroom, or provide the link as a further resource for the students.

Furthermore, I could set the Podcast as a homework task, where students would go home, listen to the Podcast and bring back three things they found particularly interesting, useful etc. I think a task such as that would bring variety into homework or assessment for the students and would be fantastic for the auditory learners.

As a teacher, I would search for pre-made Podcasts to provide new and interesting perspectives on the lessons i was preparing.
