I located ETFO's Voice magazine from April 2008 (www.etfo.ca). I saved this issue specifically because of the articles that dealt with podcasting. These include:
Portable Radio: Podcasting from the Portables: This classroom podcsast began from the humble beginnings of downloading iTunes. The podcasts can be heard atwww.portableradio.edublogs.org. Great examples of Canadian classrooms and technology in action.
Curriculum Insert: So You Want to Start Up Your Own Class Podcast? Step by step instructions which include audio editors such as audacity. Think 'podcasting for dummies' as it removes any scare factor.
La technologie en action-Branchons-nous sur la technologie! A nice article that features FSL and technology as partners for oral and written communication. Virtual visits are discussed as well as research tools such as archives.radio-canada.ca for information about Canadian culture.
After reading these articles and visiting the various information sites mentioned, podcasting is no longer foreign or complicated. It takes a little research, planning and effort. What a great motivator for students.
