This podcast took an enormous amount of time. I went from a WAV to an MP3 to an MMV to a Flash video to upload to YouTube. Surely there has to be an easier way to do this?
I plan on having my students do a Podcast this coming semester. Even though it was a difficult process I think my students will enjoy it and find it meaningful. I'm thinking of using it with my Book Talks. This is an informal assignment where I have them present information about a book they are reading with information such as the author, plot, main characters, conflict, etc. etc. The idea was for the students to present to the whole class, but each student finishes at different times and it was difficult to find the group time to do the presentation. I'm thinking that if have each student post their Podcast on YouTube they will have fun listening to each others presentations. They will absolutely love putting a soundtrack along with their presentation. So we'll see how it goes.
