Can you hear me now?

What an interesting week... journal article reviews and podcasting! I learned a lot this week, as I have the other weeks in this class and I find myself staying up late to "play" with the new technology applications that I'm coming across, is anyone else having that issue? :)
  For my podcast, I chose to focus on blooms taxonomy related to educational technology. I used this wonderful website.. here is the link; http://www.schrockguide.net/bloomin-apps.html take a look. It has wonderful information and I go through several different links that relate to educational technology as well. I used the software Jing to create my podcast and screencast to save it and upload it to my page. Did I find the process difficult, no not once I got the hang of it. I think the thing I found the hardest was finding a quite space without my kids or two year old grand daughter trying to beat the door down!! I think the benefits of a podcast are endless for both teachers and students. I could definitely see using a podcast in my classroom. I think it could enhance learning students learning by helping them be the creator of the information and take charge of their own learning... as we do in a student centered class. I will attempt to post my podcast here. Wish me luck. See you all next week. I look forward to our new learning tools we will be exposed to, as I'm sure you all do too!

The video will not work! And I'm unsure how to remove it, sorry!

  1. It's difficult to try to find a quite space. Mine is either when Harper is in school and/or asleep! Not sure what happened with your video. Is it properly uploaded on screen cast?

  2. Well - I see that it is uploaded in screen cast - perhaps there was an error in the code you copied.
