This slacker instructor finally got podcasts for weeks 6, 7, and 8 up at Gabcast. I'll be sending files to Andrew to get up in Mesa's iTunesU later today.Those are the last three official podcasts for the course. I'll be doing two more in the next week or so to reflect upon the course as a whole and another reflecting upon the process of podcasting for the course.

I'm hoping that you will attempt to build a complete module; however, that means different things to different people/courses.

I'm seeing and getting questions about screen captures and such. Another tool I was recently introduce to, and like, is Jing. Jing allows you to do static screen captures as well as audio/visual movies of screen captures (the stuff I shared with you all the first week of class).It allows you to have "embedding code" that I was then able to paste into the HTLM of this post and you get the image

Image posted by Strangeless @ Flickr.PodcastingIt's really very simple, podcasting is audio blogging. The big mistake that many make is thinking that podcasting is just recording an audio file and posting it to your online course. That's just putting a multi-modal resource in your course that helps with different types of learning (for example, people who put audio recordings of vocabulary works

Thanks folks for your patience. I fought catching bronchitis over the weekend... it won! My goal...get ahead of you all during spring break when you are catching up. :-)To-do:listen to weekly podcast--delayed until I don't sound like a frog that smoked 20 packs of cigarettes. I'll post a blog when it's up! :-) course build: Design your course activities for the first week? What will students do?

I hope you all didn't hold your breath!Whew...finally...got the podcast posted (in both places). Sorry, I was really working with that transcription thing. And although MS Word didn't do a GREAT job transcribing, it was definitely a solid draft that makes it easier to just go in and clean up instead of transcribing from scratch.Image posted by Sister72 @ Flickr.

I'm working on that podcast folks. Sorry, I'm trying to figure out a way to record it and have software make a draft of the transcript simultaneously. Did you know MS Office has a voice transcription tool? I'll get back to you on how useful it is. I promise, podcast by the end of today!Also, don't forget as you post pictures and videos and other content you find online, you'll want to give credit

Week 1: Learn the TechnologyWelcome to CIS237!In my experience the first week of an online class is always lost to "learn the technology." Obviously since I have classes that are a confederacy of loosely strung together technologies, this learning time is extremely importantly; however, I find this time is just as important in a course that is completely restricted to a Learning Management System
