Week 9 Thing 21

Podcasts
I thought I would experiment with some of the podcast directories listed on Classroom Learning 2.0 instead of just using itunes-- which I am familiar with!! Unfortunately, both podcast.net and Yahoo links are old and do not connect-- I get the dreaded.. note that the site cannot be found.

My family (this time read my husband, my 88 year old dad, and myself) have been listening to podcasts for a number of years… usually either Leo Laporte or Click and Clack. I just discovered Sandra Loh—she is great… Although the links here are to their respective websites-- have fund listening to one of the podcast choices at the links.My husband uses podcast to listen to his books on the ipod as he takes his run around the neighborhood. I haven’t found any great podcasts for math—yet… but I think I will keep trying. I may just have to create my own-- Elisa and myself took a class on creating our own podcast over a year ago at So CA CUE Conference in Palm Springs but neither of us have done anything with that knowledge... maybe its time!!

Hi Jani!
I am interested in creating podcasts with my class. You mentioned you learned how to make them. What service did you use and did you like it?
Also, on the web I have followed links that are called "pods" but they have video and audio. Can a pod have video?
Thanks!
