Digital Audio Production
Audio is SO important to multimedia production... I cannot ever over-emphasize this! After this afternoon's crash-course session on digital audio involving iTunes, Garage Band, Audacity, and podcasting, comment on the knowledge you have gained. Topics to cover: a neat podcast you found in the iTunes podcast directory (educational or not!), educational applications for podcasting with your students and curricular area, and maybe a great resource or two on this topic that you do not want to forget for the future.
Who wants an iPod now?

I think it is so important to give students an opportunity to learn using various senses. (We all learn differently,after all) I have no idea what these things are, much less how to produce them, but I am eager to learn.
Usinng audio multimedia would help some of my slow readers. Would it be possible to read books on the computer?
Becky and I found a few interesting podcasts in the education section. The one we liked the best was a podcast for a TV show :)
I would like to start podcasting with Spanish I & II students, simply having the students or myself pronouncing Spanish words. Then, I would like to have students podcast little plays, conversations, and/or dialogues for each other to hear.
I have an mp3 player, how much better is an iPod???
I didn't get a new pod cast because the internet was down. I did fhowever get to listen to the 5th grade podcast on Nebraska- They did a great job. Our 7th grade NE history teacher had the kids do power points for the 1st time this year. Maybe we can enhance this by have some kids do podcasts instead of power points.
I really like the idea of making "audio books" using podcasts. It would work well for our young readers!
I have had the opportunity to work with some audio in the Read 180 classroom this year. Students recorded their passages that they worked on then they got to listen to them and so did I. I like the idea of taking this a little farther. After the kids has recorded their passages on the computer...have them record it for a podcast and put music to the back ground.
I could listen to alot of podcasts that I found today. Some educational and some not. Showing the students some examples will give them alot of ideas.
I didn't get to listen to a podcast because of the internet. I'll try again at home. I'm also going to look into Audacity. I think it might be fun to have some kids read stories or give their reports as a podcast.
I really enjoyed learning more about I casts. This would give students another avenue to share information with the internet. My student have enjoyed creating a website and I think they would really like creating a i cast.
Wow, I love the new possibilities. Just another way to get information to students or for students to share their knowledge. I learned how to put vocal on the Garage Band. I am going to try to check out Audacity. We'll see what I find. I can see possibilities of having students research maybe a career or maybe even have 6th graders share about the process of planning Red Ribbon Week. Fun new idea!!!
I need to work on finding podcasts in certain areas. I struggled with this. As I was trying to find different podcasts I stumbled upon one entitled "Episode 24: Katie Morrow Improves Fluency Through Blogging, E-mail, Podcasting, & E-books." Wow!!!!
I am starting to understand garage band a lot better. I feel like I could go and use it. I just need to play with audacity to be in line with the technology I have.
What would technology be without audio? It would be like not being able to communicate through speaking. I am so excited to try my hand at audio books. I will probably have to e-mail you forever on this one.
The more I think about it I think I could use this a lot in my class. Garage Band would be great to show how recordings are made with the layering of voices and instruments. I also want to check out Audacity because of the equipment I have. I think we could also make some podcasts demonstrating activities we do in class with their voices or instruments.
I found that Audacity was not as user friendly as GarageBand. I did manage to make a short "commercial" on Audacity.
I found a fitness podcast with songs with different beats to walk to. Also I found the "Lost" podcast that keeps you updated with what is happening on the show. I also listened to the Radio WillowWeb podcast. It gave great ideas on how to use podcasts with younger students. I think creating podcasts for science reviews would be a great way for me to start with my second graders. Each student could report on something from the unit. I really liked the "Podcasts for Educators, Schools, and Colleges".
i enjoyed exploring the itunes podcasts. I think this will be a great tool for the music - library project that Molly and I are planing to attempt.
