Blogging and Podcasting Workshop
On Saturday, February 18, I'll begin teaching a workshop to our school system's staff about how to use blogging and podcasting in an educational setting.
We're going to start with a brief overview about what blogs, podcasts, RSS, and wikis are. Then we'll spend a good bit of time digging around in the Interweb (I saw that term earlier today at http://english4040.blogspot.com/ and loved it as a description for Web 2.0) to hear what people are saying. We'll practice learning through the online conversation and see where it takes us. Then we'll set up our own blogs and put it into practice.
For the second session, March 4, we'll start in on podcasting...both as consumers and as producers. Should be a hoot!
Watch the comments on this post to see how it all turns out.
