Week 9: Podcasts, Video & Downloadable Audio

#20. Discover YouTube and a few sites
#21. Podcasts
#22. eBooks and Audio eBooks
#23. Summarize your thoughts about this program.

I embedded a video from TeacherTube that I thought was funny. It wasn’t hard to do after I figured out how to copy the HTML and where to put it on my blog. I feel very techi being able to do this!

I added a podcast that I created using Audacity and uploaded to ourmedia. It took a long, long, time for me to figure out how to do this, I learned a lot in the process. On itunes I really liked the podcast “Grammar Girl” and the “National Geographic” video podcasts.

I enjoyed looking around the World eBook website but I had trouble trying to download an mp3 ebook to play on my ipod. www.Podiobooks.com was an easy to use site that I was able to easily subscribe to an ongoing story through itunes.

This Web2.0 course has been awesome! I have learned so much by taking the time each week to explore the recommended sites. I was able to go at my own pace and spend more time in the areas that were new to me. I wish the course would be updated every so often with new sites and tasks so that I could keep learning! School is starting next week and I am excited to share with teachers many of the ideas that have come from this course. I love technology!
