Whew! The podcast is finished. In fact, it was submitted at 10:59 p.m.
Truly, I had more fun with this than I thought I would. Maybe it will catch on and I'll use it more with my instruction, although I still think the screencast would be more beneficial.
I decided to tell my students about the importance of the ethics of journalism, covering all nine of them and suggesting that journalists earn respect through these ethics, with credibility being the most important. This would be a great supplement to or even a lead-in to their reading and study of the ethics of journalism. An opportunity to share my perspective before we even talk about or apply the ethics in class.
I had no troubles recording, editing, or saving the podcast in the correct format. I chose to upload it to folio web and submit the URL. I later attached the URL to my Moodle course, but haven't successfully uploaded the file. I'll play around with that over the weekend.
I'm happy to have the podcast finished. Now I'm ready to meet the next challenge - the instructional website. Should be fun!
I had fun with the podcast as well, even though I was dreading it! I used garage band and uploaded onto folioweb. I am just amazed by all the different types of technology out there, and folioweb is great! I wondered if I may have taken my classes out of order, but I think having this class last was the best. It combines everything that we have done in our other classes!
ReplyDeleteYou can also put your MP3 file in Dropbox and use the link from there. If you don't have Dropbox, it's free, (and wonderful); you can download it here: http://db.tt/Ifv2Qduj
ReplyDeleteI like Dropbox too. I use that for school documents a lot. Since I have a folioweb account I like to use it for most of my Kent work. Thanks for the suggestion:)
