Podcast

This week I completed my first podcast.  The podcast dealt with technology use of my students.  The first step was to conduct a survey of my students about the knowledge and use of technology.  Two interesting facts came from this survey.  First only half of my students have computers at home they can use.  Second, only seven of sixty four students knew anything about blogs and podcast.  These two facts were interesting because they were the opposite of what I had read in class. The next step was to interview four of my students.  I chose two females and two males. All four of them had used technologygy; however none of them knew anything about podcast.  All four were excited when I showed them how the podcast worked and they heard themselves on it.  All three of my classes listened to the podcast, at the participants request.  Students were generally excited and stated that they would like to try it in class.
