Activity 8: Podcasting

This week we’re exploring Podcasting. This assignment is due on Tuesday, November 9.

• View the video “Podcasting in Plain English” (http://www.commoncraft.com/podcasting).
  
• Read “What Everyone Ought to Know about Podcasting” (http://theedublogger.edublogs.org/2009/05/26/what-everybody-ought-to-know-about-podcasting-part-i/).
  
• Read Bennington, Adam. 2007. Stick it in your ear: Keeping current with podcasts. Online (May/June): 30-33 (http://libproxy.stcloudstate.edu/login?URL=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=aph&AN=24981995&site=ehost-live).
  
• Go to KVSC.org podcast page for Henry Oertelt, Holocaust survivor (http://kvsc.org/podcast_list.php?id=5). Listen to the introduction and part one. Using the Bennington article as a guide, evaluate the podcast.
