- 38. Podcasting Lessons Learned Know your audience. Focus on your content - Garbage in, Garbage Out… Invest in a good microphone for your podcast. Have notes and an outline to keep on the topic.
- 39. Podcasting Podcasting 101 Edit your podcast appropriately for content, quality, and length. Keep your podcast short and file size small - use a lower rate of bits per second (32 kpbs, 16 KHz, Mono) and still sound good to listener.
- 40. Podcasting Podcasting 101 (Continued) A “talking head” is distracting. Do not include video if the video does not enhance the content. Deliver valuable, informative, engaging content to students that they cannot get from any other sources. Provide notes for students to review content of the episode before and while they listen to the podcast.
- 41. Podcasting Podcasting Questions for Thought… Will students still come to face-to-face lectures? What about public access to audio files What about copyright issues? Is it difficult to search or scan podcast content? Do podcasts lend themselves to passive and prescriptive teaching? What about issues concerning bandwidth?
- 42. Podcasting Podcasting Issues Podcasts are not interactive. Podcasts have limited usefulness for the hearing impaired.
