I am posting again, I saw it, but here it is again. Intro to Popcorn Conversation.

A short message from me. I look forward to hearing what you have to say.

You can listen to my audiointroduction now...

This is really going to be challenging. Here is my introduction

I was not able to download the beta version of Audacity.  Will try again later.  So here is my intro in the old version.

Here is a little audio I created to help explain the use of a compressor in audio editing.

Hello all, I had no idea when I began my webcast academy that I would be finishing up with a weekly show, starting November 7, 2006, 9 PM, on the worldbridges network. Thanks to Jeff and Dave for this opportunity. Thanks to the wonderful audience we seem to have dragged with us and a special thanks to the women, Sharon Peters, Jennifer Wagner and Vicki Davis, who with Cheryl Oakes make up Women of Web 2.0.

This will be a journey, join in the conversation as we travel the planet.

Thanks to Derek Miller for his podsafe music which is used in the intro and outro.

I'll be back with the show, right now it is too big topost.

Hey Folks... Just listened to the Geek!Ed! podcast and they mentioned that they have a gear page that explains their equipment. Here's the link:

I think I'm going to get one of their recommended SnowBall microphones as I really need a unidirectional unit. I'll let you know how it goes.

Hope everyone is having a good webcastathon weekend!

Cheers.

SpaceCast Episode #5  is edited and ready to go. This is our first live event for our middle school elgg students (personallearningspace.com) this school year. After being recorded live on air, I had to edit some choice items but it is still entertaining.

Last year, I had to ask others to broadcast for me since I could not get the firewalls open at school. That problem is now solved and I am able to handle the details. I still must work on getting the chat room to work for me and kids. Paul Allison and I joined Madeline Brownstone for a nice student cast session.

Just as we learn the ins and outs of social networking, so do our students and therein lies the reason for my editing a little of the audio. We will be discussing plans for this friday's SpaceCast tonight on Teachers Teaching Teachers so we can be better guides for out students.  See you next week (Friday at 10:30am EST).

In a recent post, Leigh Blackall talks about the decentralization of education. He shows a vision where learning is freely available to all through the best teachers on the Internet.

This can be made possible if teachers loosen their coupling with institutions and create an independant prescence on the web. Each teacher shares her research interests, and findings with everyone over her blog, podcasts and the like. Teachers also build communities of learning on their website. Learning is promoted by conversations; synchronous and asynchronous. By giving assignments and publishing micro-contents that explain various concepts in the form of text, audio, video.
