I honestly had no idea what a podcast was until tonight. I'm still confused if it is audio and video or just audio. I'm pretty sure it's just audio because I know on my ipod i can upload podcasts and i don't have a video i pod....
I think podcasts will be helpful in elementary teaching. I realllly like the idea of digital story telling. I can use podcasts to add audio to digital story telling. In the classroom I could also record important "lectures" so that if a student is absent they can access the lecture at home. Podcasting is also a neat way to teach lessons in general. I really liked listening to the lecture today in class and being able to pause it, do what it said to do and then play again. I know the one we saw in class was not a pod cast, but i could use the same idea. For example if i want my students to learn how to add a post to their blog, i could make a step by step podcast for them to listen to. Also, i could post this so if the students are at home and forget, they can listen and quickly be reminded.
We made a podcast today in class. it was fun.
