Thing 19: Podcasting



Ma, che aqua nella moca? Si...Secura? apunto!. Wow! I love podcasting. I listened to a Italian Lesson for beginners. The phrase that I wrote at the beginning of this blog means... Is there water in the coffee pot? Yes. Are you sure? Then, after a mini-disaster! The responder sarcastically adds, "Sure there is!" I had no idea that podcasting held so many unique possibilities for learning. This is really exciting. I also watched a vodcast of one of my colleagues, Dave Bydolowski, who made a vodcast of a science teacher that has taught his 5th grade class to raise and maintain an aquarium of salmon. That vodcast is on MI-Streamnet. There are so many ways one can use podcasting to teach, learn new and exciting things. I would like to use podcasts in my work, but most of all, I would like to learn Italian using the podcasts that I have discovered. Since I am a professional singer, by avocation. [I sing with Michigan Opera Theatre.] This would be a great way for me to brush up on my languages. I had no idea of the possibilities. I will have to find the links for the podcasts that I discovered.I believe I used a site call "Podcast Alley". Off to Italy and onto new adventures with podcasting! Ciao, bella! LOVE IT! This is exciting!
