Podcasting in Education

Please join us as we engage in a discussion and workshop on audio and podcasting for education with radio producer and filmmaker, Erin Davis, in January. Participants will walk away from this two day workshop with a clear map for podcast production from concept to distribution.  We will begin by addressing the fundamental question, “What is a podcast?” and swiftly continue to cover:

  • Format, style and themes of a variety of leading podcasts
  • Equipment needs & recording techniques
  • Software & editing basics
  • Distribution and sharing

The discussion and workshop will occur on Monday, January 20th and Wednesday, January 22nd, from 1pm-4:30pm. There will also be time to work with technologists on project work on Tuesday, January 21st, from 1-4:30pm.

    Sounds like a great opportunity. Perhaps we should market this to faculty as a way to extend Thanksgiving Break to a week, as is being discussed. Offer a podcast instead of a class that week!
