Podcasts in Education

I did have a good time last week in class making our podcasts. I do think it could be an exciting way for students to show what they have learned in the classroom. My SBTS just learned about the new Podcasting tool in Blackboard. She is going to teach me how to use it next week. She also pointed out that I have already created Podcasts without knowing it. I made a few tutorials for Office 2007 using the video capture feature in Snagit with my voice as the narrator. It was fun and my SBTS has posted them on the teacher resources Blackboard site for other staff members to watch. This was very easy and fun to create. I hope others can learn to use Snagit for learning purposes.
