Podcasts

Although there were only a few of us in class, I really am glad we had the opportunity to learn how to create a podcast. It was so similar to the digital movie...I only wonder if a PC version would be that easy.

On another note, I taught some of my colleagues how to use the Windows Movie Maker and boy were they excited! They too commented on how easy it was to navigate through and are excited to introduce this to kids and to have them use it in their next IB unit! Now only if that excitement would spread through to the rest of the staff. We had a staff meeting on Wednesday before class and watched a clip on technology and preparing our kids for the 21st century. After that clip a lot of the staff commented that they would like more training on using various programs...so staff development here I come!
