This week we looked at podcasting using podomatic and resizing photographs.
Podcasting allows you to publish audio files, which allows your students and others to access them. I found it interesting that you can use them with itunes and if it is linked each time a podcast is added it just goes in to your itunes list. I have seen podcasts used by lecturers to University students mostly to those external. It allows the students to access lectures from anywhere without having to attend classes.
Great idea if you are teaching to students globally.
This is my attempt at a podcast.

Podcasts open up a huge door for teaching and e-learning as it provides an opportunity for teachers to communicate to students studying their courses externally. This helps them be focused in their studies and know that they aren't just talking to a computer.
