Practice Podcasting

1- Learn more about the applications of Podcast at http://www.edtechnetwork.com/podcasting_vodcasting.html

2-If you already have an idea for a podcast skip this step. Otherwise, in groups of 2 (or individually using 2 different voices), script a conversation (face2face or over the phone) and record the whole conversation (at least 2 minutes).

·  A parent and a teacher

·  A student and a teacher

·  A client and an agent

·  A librarian and a library member
