We have been learning how to create a podcast through IPhones, Ipods and Macs. We are going to be creating a PSA, which me and Kristie decided on Internet Safety, for our topic. We will be uploading our PSA to our class websites, which we created 2 weeks ago.
To me as a teacher and as a student, working on projects, I will be able to have my students be able to create projects, such as podcasts, for various subjects. I believe we are doing this to expand our creativeness to other forms of technology, other than the plain Internet, word documents, ect. As for applying to my other classes, I will be able to cooperate this new skill into lesson plans and presentations.
Learning this new technology, changes my current schema because with each new thing that I am learning, opens my mind to so many other things! This could change the way I will become a teacher because I will know so much more technology, than those who have not learned this. Students will be able to work with each other, outside of school by using podcasts, not only for projects, but to upload vocal messages to their fellow peers. That can also be the same with teachers. For example, if a teacher is out of town for your weekly collaboration, you can record your meeting, post it on ITunes, and your colleague now has all the information she missed.
