EDLD 5363 Week 2 Reflections

Creating a Podcast was a new exciting task that I was eager to conquer. I had no experience with any of the software that we were using for week 2. I had to start by doing the readings, and watching all available tutorials for Podcast, Audacity, and LAME. I was off to a scary start when it came time to for all of the downloads. The challenge was ultimately that I needed to run some OS X software updates on my Macbook.
Once I successfully got the software on my computer is was easy sailing. I chose to do a tutorial on Apple's iMovie, because I am most familiar with it. I enjoyed recording my tutorial take after take. My personal dilemma was the sound of my voice. I had to practice my one and pitch, and disguising my strong Texas accent and draw.
I enjoyed the week 2 task, and will positively implement podcast tutorials into my social studies classroom. As a member of my campus tech team I will also try my hardest to persuade other to use this exciting technology. I think that podcast tutorials could be amazing with math and science.
