I am so excited. I purchased a microphone today so that I could start doing podcasts. I have downloaded JingProject, so I was ready to start practicing. I think that this will be a fantastic tool to use with my students. Since I have been teaching Word, I used it to do a short demonstration of mail merge.
The podcasts are limited to 5 minutes since I have the free version, but that was great. After I found out how to get it to acknowledge my microphone, I was ready to made some "noise". I realize that I now that I will need a script before I start recording, but it was great to see what I can do with the software and the microphone.
One of the perks of going back to school has been that I have started looking for new things to do in class and new ways to present it. I have always made sure my students understood the topics that we were discussing, but I am afraid that I have fallen back on the "tried and true". One of my students told me that she like the fact that I was in school--I was coming up with fun things to do. I need to keep up the momentum and keep looking for new ways to present the information. It will certainly help that I have to prepare for new classes, but I will find new techniques and procedures to use.....
