Podcasting Ideas
I was reading Tim Wilson's blog looking for information about purchasing equipment when I came across a couple postings I will republish - one a list of ways podcasts can be used in the classroom and the other an interesting way of encouraging administrators to drink the podcast Kool-Aid.
The post I was looking for is below:
The Podcave (an update)
December 24th, 2005 | by Tim Wilson |
I posted a while ago about my new podcasting microphone, but I thought I’d post an updated photo of the podcave. If you click through to the photo on Flickr you’ll be able to see some additional information about the equipment. The new gear includes a Heil PL-2 boom, Electro-Voice RE20, and Model 309 shockmount.

February Professional Development
We will use the tech training period to complete the EdTechProfile. Your status is currently green but will be out of date by August '07. I sent your login and password this morning and I have a hard copy if
necessary. Upon login, you will need to verify your site (make sure it is Forest Park then click Done) and confirm your email address. Click Retake then click Start Here. Some questions are in columns in which you determine whether you fit in a majority of the attributes described while others are multiple choice.

ADHD and Hall Davidson
Hall Davidson was the 6th and final speaker at the K-12 Symposium and in his inimitable style gave a hyperactive presentation on myriad uses of iPods in the classroom titled The MegaVCR: Media and More in Your Pocket.
Came away with some really neat ideas of how to use this portable technology in the classroom. Hall's central theme was the iPods ability to house a variety of media including:
- Videos
- Movies
- PowerPoints (Advanced Google Search select .ppt file format)
- Software Output
- Flash
- Music
- Photos
that could be passed between classrooms. Videos can be added to the iPod after they have been imported into iTunes. If the file is already in mpv4 format, select Add to Librabry. Other assest will have to be converted by right-clicking the video then selecting Convert Selection for iPod. Purchased an iPod cradle with s-video inputs based on his recommendation. I would like to try this out in Jon Ford's room as a way to show powerpoint presentations.
