This week we had to make a Podcast and that was really what I had read most about this week because I was very nervous about creating my own Podcast. Online thankfully there is one million sites that teach you how to make one and why you should at least listen to them and experiment. SO, with my scared lack of technology mind I went to work! I did realize soon after that my teacher did in fact know what he was speaking about Podomatic was the easiest one to use! Ellissa and I spoke into a computer which felt weird and we often had to stop ourselves from laughing. This was SUCH a fun project once we had the materials to do it correctly. At first we did not have a microphone but our laptop had one that we can use on Powerpoint so we tried for a few hours to make that work. Then we walked down in the cold dark campus library basement where we found two boys who did not know anything about computers who handed us a broken microphone!! We of course that it was supposed to look like that never using one before, then I noticed the cord was hanging out! So, we got a different one and from that second on the Podcast had come to life and was truly a blast to do! So this week the reading was much on how to figure out how to make a Podcast and how there really is one on every topic no matter what your interest was. This project was great and doing it was much more informal then what we read, so I am very glad this week our reading was much on our own and experimental.
